Particulate Filters |
Remove particles larger than the pore size of the
filter. |
|
Carbon Filters |
Utilize the fine pore structure of activated carbon to remove
chlorine, small dissolved organics and other contaminants. |
|
Membrane Filters |
Absolute membrane filters remove particles down to 0.1micron,
including bacteria. |
|
Ultrafilters |
Particle removal ratings for UF filters are described in
microns or a molecular weight cut off (MWCO). In addition to particles, UF
filters can remove colloids along with bacterial decomposition
products. |
|
Backwashing Filters |
Recommended for particle removal as water flow increases or
when particle load is high. |
