The AQQA® filtration technology is used in drinking water treatment to:

• remove all non-dissolved substances from the water, like sediment, algea, particles, suspended solids, organic matter

• disinfection of the water by acting as a barrier for bacteria and virus

• remove particles from precipitation (removal of manganese, iron)

AQQA® will work in these waters:

• water from a river or lake. Task: Make drinking water for one person (AQQA®-bag) or a village (AQQA®-cube, AQQA® )

• groundwater and bank filtrate. Task: Prefiltration for drinking water treatment, remove sand, disinfection

• sea water. Task: Prefiltration for reverse osmosis desalination systems.

• rain water. Task: make drinking water from rain water, disinfection, remove suspended solids

How do you benefit from using AQQA®in Drinking water applications?

• As AQQA® is designed for the tough environment of wastewater treatment, it can easily handle the amount of solids that are typically for drinking water applications.

• high output: filtration up to 100 l/m².h using air-bubble cleaning and regular chemical backflush. This mode is typically used in fixed installations like drinking water treatment plants

• ultra-low pressure filtration: filtration with approx. 4 to 5 l/m²h without electricity and without any cleaning. This is a unique feature of the AQQA®-plate: It can filtrate surface water 24 hours per day without plugging - for many months (see diagram below)
