Waste Water Reclamation Plant One | Tertiary Treatment

 

Tertiary Sand Filtration


In nature, when rain water falls it passes through soil, gravel, and rock down to aquifers. This naturally purifies the water and we pump this water out of the aquifers for drinking water. We use the same concept with our sand filters. The waste water having left secondary treatment passes through granular material (sand and fire coal) which strains out or absorbs any remaining solids. These filters automatically clean themselves when they get dirty.
