Pressurized sand filters (Multimedia filter-MMF) are used for suspended solids removal in water and wastewater treatment plants, and activated carbon filters are used for color and odor removal. Automatic or manual filtration systems can be designed depending on the place of use and purpose.
Depending on the intended use, pressurized sand filters and active carbon filters can be used alone, or pressurized sand filters and active carbon filters can be used sequentially, respectively.
Tank material can be preferred as carbon steel, epoxy painted or stainless steel.
Filters generally consist of a tank, nozzles, filling and discharge covers, filling material and distribution valves.
