What is ground water under the influence?
Ground water is water that naturally occurs within the geologic
features under the earth’s surface. Ground water is typically
deep enough that for all practical matters the surface water does
not reach it, and therefore does not affect the ground water’s
quality. Ground water under the influence is water within the
geologic features under the earth's surface, but is connected
in some manner to water from the earth’s surface.
Ground water under the influence is water typically found in shallow
wells, yet may also be water from deeper wells that allow surface
water to enter through such formations as sinkholes or vertical
fractures in the underground rock.
Ground water is classified as being under the direct
influence of surface water if it exhibits either a significant
occurrence of insects or other macroorganisms, algae, or large
diameter pathogens such as Giardia lamblia or Cryptosporidium,
or has significant and relatively rapid shifts in water
characteristics such as turbidity, temperature, conductivity or
pH which closely correlate to climatological or surface water
conditions.
Samples of water going to be filtered should look
turbid with little or no settling occuring even after 24 hours
of standing.
We have a solution.
Filtronics Electromedia®
V is a state of the art filtration system for turbidity and
color removal with superior operating and filtration characteristics.
The system consists of an alum feed, a reaction vessel (size based
on water temperature), and a filter vessel. The media has absorptive
qualities and captures particles that would ordinarily pass through
conventional filtration units. The water is treated with chlorine
and alum to produce non-detectable color units and no taste or
odor. The filter removes below 2 micron material including giardia
and cryptosporidium.
Modular Approach
Filtronics uses a unique three component modular construction
and custom design approach to each application. This design approach
is utilized in conjunction with chemical feed, sludge treatment,
and filtration of clarified elements to provide proven effectiveness
in water treatment, industrial waste pretreatment, and other conditions
requiring the separation of solids from liquids.
Skid Mount System
Filtronics offers packaged, skid mounted systems for smaller
discharge volumes. These provide a safe, one-pass discharge for
different types of wastewater, including recycled coolant water
or recycled parts washing water.
Advantages of Filtronics Modular Design Industrial system:
- Custom unique design for each application.
- Varied size of individual components without compromising
quality.
- Can be configured several ways to fit into space - around
corners, long narrow arrangements or consolidated into a square.
- Can be purchased as an entire system or any of the three
basic components individually.
- Engineered to be adaptable to every water and waste water
system.
- Greater price performance per square foot.
