Municipal wastewater
The following is published data by a Spanish Water Utility on the treatment of wastewater for second use. The data shows the backwash profile from the gravity flow sand filter and then the AFM ® filter. The data confirms the stability and high performance of AFM ® in comparison to sand.
The sand filter was unstable and the large interval between the back-wash peeks confirms channelling of water through the sand bed.
The AFM ® filter was like clock-work, each run phase and every back-wash was the same. The data confirms the stability of AFM ® and the high quality of product water that may be achieved.
