Full Description

This study is part of a Research project entitled: "Design Criteria for High Rate Filtration". The results discussed in this paper are aimed at identifying the parameters with the most important effects in direct filtration applications. The contribution of seven parameters involved in filter design and operation were assessed. The main results showed that the filtration rate, the media effective size, the media depth and the water head are the parameters that most impact filter performance. The contribution of each parameter depends on the performance angle to be improved. The contribution of the type of media and the uniformity coefficient is minor. For low turbidity waters (
