GYROSAND Filter

GYROSAND Filter

Technology

Advanced pressure less, open area, Upwards Sand Filtration with integrated Sand bed Cleaning and Regeneration for fully continuous operation, without intermediate backwashing cycles.

The Sand Filtration operates in a circular stainless steel or concrete tank. The special raw water feed design provides uniform Surface distribution of the Inlet stream.

The filtration flow goes upwards through the sand filter bed, clear water is collected in overflow weir in the Topside of the Filter for discharge.

The sand bed and the filtered contaminants (slurry) slide down the Cone to the lower collection chamber, where this sand, water, contaminants mixture is sucked by multiple “Air Lift Mamut Pumps”.

The airlift Mamut pumps use compressed air to move Sand, Water and Slurries through a pipe to the Backwashing Cell which is located on the very top of the sand filter.

High turbulence removes impurities, and clean sand returns to the filter bed, in the Washing Cell isolated sand granules are backwashed in Upstream while falling down on the topside of the sand filter bed.

The Key advantage of this technology is continuous Filtration Operation and Continuous Sand Backwashing at the same Time
