Success factors for the development of filter systems in water management
Water forms the habitat of countless organisms in seas, rivers and lakes. As service and process water, it is indispensable for our households and almost every industry. Above all, in the form of drinking water, it is probably the most precious commodity for humans. In view of a steadily growing world population, trade in a globalised world and the increasing relevance of water and hydrogen as energy sources, our H2O dependence will increase even further.
In order to conserve one of the most valuable resources on our planet, engineers and technicians are required to find efficient and sustainable solutions for dealing with water. An important factor is the process of water filtration: Wire mesh filter elements in small and large dimensions provide answers to many questions.
Official specifications, but above all experience in the production of woven wire cloth and ready-made filter elements, show which success factors are decisive for the quality of these systems in different industries.
Microfilters in household and industry
The effects of microplastics on the environment and humans are devastating. As emissions of plastic through abrasion and weathering, these microparticles enter water bodies and soils via precipitation and domestic and industrial wastewater. In addition to reducing plastic, efficient barriers that prevent microplastics from entering the wastewater cycle are therefore essential in the short term.
Learn how the finest metal mesh filters prevent microplastics from entering wastewater treatment plants. With wide-ranging possibilities, this filter medium offers your ideas and requirements enough flexibility to find an optimal solution approach. Consideration of the factors flow rate, filter fineness and economy must not be missing in the decision-making process in order to obtain an optimal solution approach.

Metal mesh filters for water treatment
Water treatment plants are usually multi-stage systems whose individual processes vary depending on the area of application. Basically, biological, chemical or physical purification is preceded by mechanical filtration.
Find out, based on ballast water treatment, why filter elements made of metal wire mesh are the ideal solution when equipping a backwash filter, among other things - especially when taking into account flow rate, filter fineness and material selection.
