Industrial Process & Effluent Separation

Wastewater Filtration

Industrial wastewater streams require effective solid-liquid separation and screening ahead of treatment or discharge.

Heavy-duty stainless steel wire cloth and wedge wire panels engineered to capture suspended solids, protect downstream pumps, and endure corrosive effluent chemistries.

Process Stage 01

Overview

Industrial wastewater screening separates coarse and fine suspended solids from process water streams prior to secondary treatment, biological oxidation, or discharge compliance.

Effective dewatering relieves downstream centrifuges and filter presses from premature blinding. By deploying continuous-slot screening media, processing plants isolate fiber, grit, and inorganic floc without surface clogging or structural deformation under fluctuating hydraulic head pressures.

Filtration Requirements

Technical threshold parameters
Solids loading capacity
Up to 3,500 mg/L TSS

Engineered to withstand heavy particulate slurries without slot blinding or differential pressure build-up.

Slot / aperture opening
50 µm – 2,000 µm

Narrow tolerance continuous slots (+/-10 µm) providing precise cut-offs across wide particle size spectra.

Flow rate
15 – 450 m³/h per unit

High open-area geometries sustain rapid hydraulic throughput with negligible head-loss during peak cycles.

Corrosion resistance
304, 316L, 904L, 2205

Passivated stainless grades selected specifically for chloride attack, acidic liquors, and caustic CIP washdowns.

Screen configuration
Continuous V-wire

Non-clogging wedge wire profiles welded to longitudinal support ribs for high backwash efficiency.

01.

Slot opening sizing for target solids

Precision aperture sizing tuned to particle distribution curves ensures high recovery rates with minimal hydrodynamic drag.

02.

Solids loading capacity

Engineered slot geometry and open area ratios support dense feed slurries without throttling throughput.

03.

Resistance to fouling and blinding

V-shaped profile wires establish sharp two-point contact, preventing near-size particles from wedging into gaps.

04.

Structural durability under continuous solids load

Heavy support rods resistance-welded at every intersection withstand continuous mechanical stress, erosion, and vibration.

05.

Ease of cleaning and backwash efficiency

Smooth continuous slot faces enable rapid automated backwashing, steam sterilization, and mechanical wiper sweeps.
