Drum Filter: Working Principle and AquaSust’s Advantages
What is a Drum Filter?
A Drum Filter, also known as a Rotating Drum Filter, is a highly efficient water treatment device designed to remove suspended solids and impurities from water or wastewater. It is widely used in municipal wastewater treatment plants, industrial processes, and other applications where water filtration is critical.
Working Principle of a Drum Filter
The Drum Filter operates on a simple yet effective principle:
1.Filtering Process
The cylindrical drum is covered with a filtration medium (such as filter cloth, mesh, or polymer filter sleeves).
As water flows through the drum, the filtration medium traps solids, allowing only clean water to pass through.
2.Self-Cleaning Mechanism
Unlike traditional filters, the Drum Filter features a self-cleaning mechanism.
When the filter becomes clogged with solids, the drum rotates, and a cleaning system (such as water jets or brushes) removes the accumulated debris.
3.Continuous Operation
The drum rotates slowly, ensuring continuous filtration while maintaining high efficiency.
This design minimizes downtime and ensures uninterrupted water flow.
Key Components of a Drum Filter
Filter Drum: The cylindrical housing of the filter, typically made of durable materials like stainless steel or polymer.
Filtration Medium: Replaceable filter screens or filter cloths, ensuring efficient filtration performance.
Cleaning System: Water or air washing devices, used to remove impurities from the surface of the filter drum.
Drive Mechanism: The power system that controls the rotation of the filter drum, typically driven by an electric motor.
