Filtration
Wastewater treatment plant
At the end of treatment in a wastewater plant, water has to respect quality standards, be it a realease in natural environment or a re-use (industrial water). Filtration enables to absorb a temporary increase in suspended solids in this water.
For treatment before re-use, filters are usually between 100 and 200 microns. With a Hectron filter, maintenance is reduced to a minimum.
Before UV, a finer filtration (20 µm) is usually chosen to protect the lamps and guarantee their efficiency
