Micro Drum Filters

Micro Drum Filters offer an efficient and reliable method for the separation of fine solids and organic matter from various types of liquids. Auxill Netherlands has developed this process one step further and now offers a range of rugged, efficient and economical Micro Drum Filters, generaly used in filtration and circulation systems.

Applications

Micro Drum Filters originate from the fish farming industry, where ever there is a constant need of (as clean as possible) take in water. Environmental regulations, made on the effluent of such farms, obligate the use of these filters to clean waste water, which contains organic matter, such as food rests, fish droppings, scales etc. Pre filtration removeshair out of sewage water before treatment by Membrane Bio Reactor (M.B.R.) on sewage treatment plants (see picture). Nowadays the application of the Micro Drum Filter has expanded to other areas. In the overview written below you will find the areas in which the drum filter is used.

Fish farming

  • Filtration intake water
  • Removal of solids in effluent

Cooling process

  • Filtration intake water
  • Removal of mussel seeds, algae etc.

Waste water treatment

  • Effluent polishing, removal of suspended solids

Industry general

  • All processes, where light solids may cause problems
  • Pre-filter for water installations
  • Pre-filter for Membrane Bio Reactor (M.B.R.)

Textile companies

  • Removal of fibers, pre-filter to UF for indigo recovery

Irrigation
