Micro screen are widely applicable for fine-filtration of large water flows. A Hubert micro screen or horizontal rotary micro strainer can be used for pre-treatment of influent and effluent in a waste water treatment plant. More efficient reuse of wastewater from municipal wastewater treatment plants or industrial production processes, make use of these filters increasingly interesting. Think of the recovery of useful raw materials from waste water or process water, such as cellulose fibers, but also stricter discharge requirements.
Our micro screens are custom engineered in which the customer plays a major role in achieving the correct efficiency, as the customer usually has the most experience with his process.
Other applications can be found in (fresh) water intakes, acting as (fine) pre-filtration system being part of potable water production plants or production plants that consume a lot of process water. See also Water Intake Systems / Drum screen.
Our definition of horizontal drum screen implies that debris is discharged through the main shaft and the filter lies in an enclosed pit or tank.
For drinking water company Dunea, Hubert succesfully removed mussel seeds with micro screens.
