Re-use water to cut carbon

Water filtration specialist Industrial Purification Systems has developed the CrossFlowMF1.0 water filtration process to bridge the gap between conventional water filter systems and the more advanced membrane technology, or ultra filtration, at a fraction of the capital cost.

The CrossFlowMF1.0 has been developed to filter below 1.0 microns to ensure cleaner process water which in turn can reduce a company's carbon footprint.

The re-use of process water just once can reduce the carbon footprint on potable water by 50%, says Industrial Purification Systems.

The CrossFlowMF1.0 filter system utilises a novel patented vortex bed stabiliser which maintains flat-bed filtration with high surface turbulence. This ensures that no bio-fouling can be seeded whilst holding filtered contamination in suspension above the media bed. This gives lower pressure drops, longer filtration and shorter backwash cycles making direct savings on operational costs.

The inlet configuration allows for high flow rates five times higher than for conventional filters. Backwash volume is also significantly lowered.
