Large concentrations of suspended solids present results in a reduction in water quality. This outcome occurs in the form of turbidity which produces undesirable effects such as color alterations, smell, and taste issues in the water. Scaling can also result due to suspended solids and significantly hampers the performance of equipment and utilities utilized across industries. For these reasons, multimedia filtration systems are depended upon within applications that require high quality treated water. Media filtration has proven to be the most effective treatment method in regard to suspended solids reduction.

Two multimedia filtration systems were designed for a major company in Kuwait. The system was tailor-made for this exact application and delivered recently. Each system has a media filtration tank, each filled with anthracite, gravel, and sand. The overall system has a flow rate of approximately one hundred gallons per minute. The features on these systems allow for a much larger constant flow of clean water than a typical duplex media filtration system.

• Extended filtration running durations
• Greater filtration rates
• The potential for water filtration to work with high turbidity and suspended matter

Water-borne diseases is prevalent in the waters sources of Oman. In this case a well water source consisted of elevated levels of bacteria which caused a great deal of sickness among the local population.

These are model MLF42A-F, MLF24-A-F-D from our MF-1000 Series.

• Multimedia filters
• Water softener
• UV sterilizer

Water Challenges: The reuse of greywater through media filtration is an efficient practice that is used in various applications such as irrigation and industrial facilities. Many farms are depending solely on the provision of formerly treated greywater to be incorporated in their equipment and system operation. Treatment is required since greywater contains extremely high degrees of pollution in the form of hardness creating minerals, organic substances, sediments, particles, etc. These contaminants can wreak havoc when applied to industrial, commercial, and domestic applications. A rapidly growing practice is reusing greywater and treated sewage effluent (TSE) for the utilization in the irrigation industry. This wastewater, after going through a Membrane Bio-Reactor and Ultrafiltration, may not be suitable for drinking water but is perfect for use in farming and irrigation. There are even farms that rely solely on TSE for their water, taking no water from underground aquifers.

Applied Solution: Pure Aqua, Inc. designs and manufactures water treatment systems in addition to filtration systems to Oman. Pure Aqua successfully manufactured and supplied water filtration systems to a major company in Oman to remove contaminants that makeup greywater such as particulates, organics, odor, and hardness from well water. The filtration systems came with multimedia filters, water softener & UV sterilizer. The filtration system was designed to produce 2 x 97 GPM.
