3. Municipal Applications of Self Cleaning Filter

Pretreatment in Water Treatment Plants:
The raw water for municipal water treatment plants is typically sourced from rivers, lakes, or groundwater, which contains various suspended solids, colloids, algae, and bacteria.

Before undergoing conventional processes such as coagulation, sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection, a self-cleaning filter can be used for pretreatment.

This effectively removes large particles, colloids, and suspended solids from the raw water, reducing the load on subsequent processes, improving the operational efficiency and stability of the entire water treatment system, lowering treatment costs, and ensuring that the treated water meets national drinking water standards, providing safe and high-quality drinking water to urban residents.

Recycled Water Systems:
As water scarcity becomes increasingly severe, recycled water technology has seen widespread adoption. In recycled water systems, wastewater undergoes initial treatment but may still contain impurities and microorganisms. If reused directly, it can negatively impact equipment and applications.

Self-cleaning filters provide advanced filtration for recycled water, removing residual suspended solids, colloids, and bacteria to meet reuse standards. The treated water can be used for urban landscaping irrigation, road cleaning, fountains, and industrial cooling, enabling water recycling, alleviating urban water shortages, and reducing wastewater discharge. This achieves significant environmental and economic benefits.
