This masterclass will provide an insight into the potential of the pile cloth media filter technology and its true place in wastewater treatment applications through a detailed understanding of the fundamentals, applications and performance.
As the water industry is facing stricter consents for treated effluents while also aiming to achieve more efficient operation of treatment systems, the implementation of sustainable technologies is becoming critical. In this context, pile cloth media filters have attracted attention in recent years due to their potential application at primary and tertiary treatment stages and simplicity of operation. However, a more detailed understanding of the mechanisms and performance of the technology will enable a true evaluation of its potential for the UK water sector.
