Overview
The main purpose of transforming the siphon filter pool into an air-water backwash filter pool is to address the issues present in the original filter pool, such as incomplete backwashing, short filtration cycles, high water consumption during backwashing, and difficulty in meeting water quality standards. Through the transformation, it is possible to achieve fully automated operation of the filter pool with constant water level and filtration speed, extend the filtration cycle, reduce operating costs, and improve water quality, thereby significantly enhancing economic and social benefits.
Transformation Methods
The methods for transforming the siphon filter pool into an air-water backwash filter pool mainly include the following aspects:
1. Key points of technical transformation:
Transform the original non-standard siphon filter pool into an air-water backwash filter pool with varying grid areas, achieving fully automated operation of the filter pool with constant water level and filtration speed.
2. Operating conditions:
After the transformation, the filtration speed of the filter pool is constant, backwashing is thorough, the filtration cycle is greatly extended compared to before the transformation, the turbidity of the filtered water is low, operating costs are reduced, and both economic and social benefits are significant.
Operating Effects
The transformed air-water backwash filter pool has the following advantages:
1. Water saving: Air-water backwashing can reduce water consumption by about 20% to 30%.
2. Energy saving: High cleaning efficiency, long filtration cycle.
3. Efficiency: Thorough backwashing effect, extending the service life of the filter layer.
4. Automation: Achieved fully automated operation of the filter pool with constant water level and filtration speed.
The siphon filter pool can also be transformed into a regular rapid filter with single water backwashing.
