Filtering water from a well or borehole: mistakes to avoid
Groundwater is a precious resource for many individuals and professionals. Whether it's used to supply a home, protect a heat pump installation or water green spaces, the quality of this water must be preserved. Yet all too often, errors in the choice and installation...
Agricultural irrigation and micro-irrigation: preventing system clogging
Modern agriculture is facing growing water management challenges. Between the scarcity of water resources and the need to optimize yields, irrigation and micro-irrigation systems have become key elements in agricultural productivity. Yet these sophisticated...
Geothermal energy and filtration: protecting groundwater installations from fine particles
Geothermal energy is experiencing remarkable growth in the current context of energy transition. This technology, which draws energy from groundwater to power heat pump systems, represents a forward-looking solution for heating and cooling buildings.
Communal pools: is filtration without consumables possible?
Managers of public pools face a constant challenge: maintaining impeccable water quality while keeping operating costs under control. Between strict regulatory requirements, high attendance and ever-increasing maintenance costs, filtration represents a major...
How can automatic filtration improve the energy efficiency of wastewater treatment plants?
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) represent a major challenge in terms of energy consumption. In Europe, they consume around 3% of total electricity, with an average energy efficiency of less than 50%. Faced with this reality and today's environmental challenges,...
Reducing turbidity in drinking water: which technologies to choose?
Water turbidity is one of the essential parameters to be controlled in drinking water treatment. This optical measurement, expressed in NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units), reflects the presence of suspended particles that cloud the water and can compromise its...
Seawater filtration: challenges and solutions for aquaculture and desalination
Seawater is a strategic resource today, given the increasing scarcity of fresh water in many parts of the world. However, its use in fast-growing sectors such as marine aquaculture and desalination requires a technical approach…
How can filtration effectively protect collective heat pumps?
Faced with today’s energy and environmental challenges, more and more multi-family buildings are being fitted with heat pumps. These systems are particularly effective in reducing energy consumption, but require special attention to ensure their longevity and performance.
Why opt for an automatic filter cleaning system?
When it comes to water filtration, not all systems are created equal. Self-cleaning filters represent a major innovation that is radically transforming the way filtration systems are managed. At Hectron, a French manufacturer specializing in automatic water filtration...
