Filtration is the removal of contaminants from waters to get waters that is fit for normal domestic consumption or for irrigation of fields and also for industrial uses (eg. For use by establishments for food). With the gradual depletion of natural sources of drinking waters (deep waters), is increasingly resorting to surface waters (seas, rivers, lakes and dams) (survival water purification systems).
These sources of supply, due to specific characteristics of waters and / or the degree of pollution, must be subjected to cycles of treatments of filtration necessary to modify the characteristics and improve its quality. Often, this happens even for the deep waters with a high content of organic substances and a high microbial contamination, especially if they are present faecal bacteria (eg. Coliforms).
We can also make filters consist of two filter layers of materials with different specific weight (dual media). As a rule, in this case the top layer is made from anthracite, lighter, and the lower one is in quartz sand. The layer of asphalt, being formed by the coarser particles of sand, preserves the rapid occlusion of first layers of sand. After a certain time, the retained particles begin to clog the bed draining decreasing the permeability, and determining, at a constant flow rate of inflow, an increase in waters level in tanks filtering. Exceeded the limit level, the layer drained must be subjected to countercurrent washing to restore its efficiency.
The filtering layer resting on a draining bottom, which has the function of: surface filters: filtration takes place through filter cloths which prevent the passage from the materials above the size of blind holes (not es.tessuto tissue; in this case the particles are retained on the surface of filter media forming a layer of material that retains the subsequent particles.
Physical and chemical treatments normal and driven: they are divided into several phases and eliminate non-settleable suspended solids (flocculation) and correct the chemical characteristics of waters by eliminating the dissolved substances that are incompatible with the use to which the waters is bound (softening, stabilization, removal of iron, manganese, desilication, fluoridation and defluoration, aeration).
The flocculation basins have a rectangular shape and can be: Staged: where to achieve greater efficiency, the tank is divided into several zones in series in which the agitation is gradually decreasing. Channels: are horizontal flow, where the pool is subdivided by transverse partitions to form a channel whose width is gradually increased so as to obtain a flow velocity gradually decreasing.
The waters containing sediments that can create several problems during the cycle of filtration. This law is valid for strictly spherical particles immersed in a liquid at rest and at constant temperature where the downward motion is not influenced neither by the presence of other particles or from the container walls.
The sedimentation is carried out in special tanks, called decanters, within which the waters moves in a laminar flow as possible for a time sufficient to allow the sedimentation of heavier particles. Decanters flow or vertical upward flow are generally circular section. Inse tanks the entrance of waters can be centrally from above; in this case waters, to be able to escape from the tank itself is forced along a tortuous path; in fact must first move vertically downwards in order to pass beneath a baffle concentric, said fireplace, subsequently, passed over the obstacle fireplace, must rise and exceed a weir located along the perimeter of tub.
