FILTRATION OF INDUSTRIAL WATER

Industrial water filtration

Water filtration in the industrial field is a wide and very varied sector. Rainwater, water potabilization, pumping of water tables, lakes, rivers … But industrial water filtration is also the filtration of all kinds of liquid rejects: asbestos removal site, paint cleaning rejects, filter for closed circuit of process water…

 

Safety filtration for closed cycle (elimination of undesirable particles in the water)

Process filtration (removal of poorly dispersed loads, particles, etc.).


Pre-discharge filtration (compliance of solids loads in water before treatment).

 

We offer a complete range of filtration solutions for water: our KBF bag filter and our PNT automatic filter. These solutions are dimensioned according to the flow rate, the pollution load and the filtration thresholds of the product to be filtered.

Do you have a filtration inquiry ?

The most simple, robust, versatile and economical water filter is without doubt the KBF bag filter. This filter body is made entirely of 304 or 316 L stainless steel and can cover flow rates ranging from a few liters to several m3 per hour. 

This stainless steel filter can be equipped with an impressive range of filter bags and filter cartridges, which can provide a filtration threshold ranging from 0.5 to 2500 microns.

Changing the filtration threshold is a simple matter of changing the filter bag. It can be precisely adjusted on demand, depending on the performance required.

For coarser applications, the KBF can be equipped with only a grid filter basket.

Our KBF bag filters are systematically designed in passivated stainless steel. They can also be electropolished if necessary for the potabilization of water, supplied with a French certificate up to an Ra of 0.2.

The KBF is a partly manual filtering system, which is generally used for the “securing” of industrial water and especially for pumping water or for the purification of closed circuits. It can also be regularly used as a so-called sentinel filter in discharge operations. 

Its simple but manual operation is designed to remove low loads of pollutants.

KBF filters can be equipped with a filter bag, a filter basket or screen or a filter cartridge.

K2TEC has a range of more than 400 types of filter bags with different thresholds and materials. All our bags can be food approved according to the CE standard …. and delivered in individual packaging.

Washing water

For washing water, the most standard bags are often monofilament bags between 50 and 200 microns depending on the purpose (recycling or discharge to the network or treatment plant).

Recycled water for process water

Thanks to the great variety of thresholds and materials, the bags can remove any type of pollutant from the process water network. Metallic particles, stainless steel, brass, fiber of all types or plastic particles. They allow the removal of all types of pollutants

Water in a closed circuit

The purpose of this type of filtration is often to maintain a correct level of cleanliness in a circuit. For this type of operation we often use low pressure drop bags to spare the pumps. These bags are often made of plastic rings, either pp or polyester. The filtration thresholds are between 25 and 100 microns. When the threshold is quite coarse it is possible to use stainless steel filter baskets.

Pumped water from groundwater or river

The great diversity, the nature of the pollutants and the subsequent use of the water, obliges on this type of problem to use all the ranges of the pockets available, from 5 microns to 1600 microns. It is also possible to find a solution according to specific needs, to install a filter cartridge in the body of the KBF bag filter.

The K2TEC PNT filter is an automatic stainless steel filter with extremely low operating costs. It is a simple, proven product with low maintenance. This filter has many advantages such as its filtration threshold, which can be changed by simply changing the filter media or paper. It can vary from 1 to 1000 microns.

Il permet de traiter de très grands débits et de s’adapter à la charge de polluants et aux potentielles variations de pollution de l’eau.

Ce filtre passe partout et le couteau suisse de la filtration d’eau. Son seul inconvénient est son encombrement relativement important.

Different types of filters can be used to filter industrial wastewater in a closed circuit. For isolated or low volume machines, gravity or hydrostatic filters are used. For large production lines with flow rates of up to several hundred m³/h, the filters use vacuum technologies with sequential advance. These filtration plants are grouped in galleries. All these filters for industrial water filtration use filter paper rolls or filter fleece. K2TEC offers filter media in widths from 200 mm to 2300 mm, which are suitable for the filtration of all kinds of pollutants in process water, pump water, cooling water etc…
