Pressure Filter - Brochure

The document discusses Napier-Reid pressure filters which are designed for water and wastewater treatment. The pressure filters can operate at high filtration rates and pressure losses, resulting in longer filter runs and reduced backwash water requirements compared to gravity filters. The document provides details on the design, operation, applications and benefits of Napier-Reid pressure filters.

Water & Wastewater Treatment

Pressure Filters NR - Pressure Filter - Process Description


Napier Reids pressure filtration systems are designed to carry out filtration in closed vessel under pressurized condition. As NR Pressure Filters have high filtration rate and ability to operate at higher pressure drop compared to gravity filters and the footprint is relatively smaller compared to conventional gravity filters. In NR Pressure Filters, the incoming raw water is distributed over the filtration area of the filter through our unique well designed flow distribution system. The water filters down through the different layers of the filter bed. The filtration media mechanically strains out dirt, suspended solids, sediment, algae, bacteria, microscopic worms, cryptosporidium and asbestos, color, odor, precipitates of iron /manganese and other impurities. The filter bed is designed to capture and hold the suspended solids and impurities throughout the depth of the filter bed (and not just at the surface layer), hence increasing the solids holding capacity. Also the filter bed and internals are designed to prevent channeling and media upset. The capability of NR pressure filters to operate at higher terminal headlosses and higher solids holding capacity results in longer filter runs and a reduced backwash water requirement.

Napier-Reid Ltd.

The filtered water is evenly collected over the filtration area by our unique water collection system that prevents channeling and short circuiting. When the differential pressure across the filter increases beyond a preset value, the filter bed is backwashed to remove the entrapped impurities in the filter media bed and return the filter to its original filtration capacity. NR filters are equipped with air scouring system and efficient NR - Pressure Filtration Skid OPG Lennox Power Generation Station Bath, Ontario
