Forward-looking wastewater treatment

Every day, huge quantities of valuable water flow into municipal wastewater treatment plants. Although the energy input of these plants is enormous, every cubic metre of wastewater contains many times more energy.

Find out how metal wire mesh helps to utilise this potential in addition to ensuring drinking water quality and what is important in the development of filter elements.

These topics await you:

  • Functioning of municipal wastewater treatment plants
  • Mechanical cleaning with the aid of micro-screening systems
  • Success factors in the optimal design of a treatment filter

We address these three success factors in detail:

Flow rate

Flow rate

The ideal combination of flow rate and dirt holding.

Filter fineness

Filter fineness

Filtration of solids ≥ 5 µm.

Material selection

Material selection

Corrosion resistance and the suitability for welding are what count.

Multi-talent metal wire mesh

Metal wire cloth is created from the predefined connection of warp and weft wires, which produce different mesh patterns depending on the choice of wires as well as the mesh shape. Above all, they are exact geometric structures whose pore sizes and thus the material and flow properties can be precisely defined.
 
They enable a consistent filter performance over the entire filter area, are versatile to process and have very good regenerability and recyclability.
 
Depending on the system, the mesh is individually shaped. Regardless of whether as a cylindrical water filter or as a cut-to-size mesh: filter media made of woven wire cloth are manufactured in such a way that they can also be easily integrated into existing systems (see Fig. "Filter medium for micro-screening system").
