RICS – Removable innovative clarifier sand filtration system

Conventional clarifier sand filtration treatment

• Big space needed, higher cost.
• Normally using concrete tank, need long time to build.
• Using lifting pump, sand filtration backwash pump, many equipment.

Is there room for improvement?

Removable Innovation Clarifier Sand filtration (RICS)

• Package coagulation – sedimentation – sand filtration processes into one pice of equipment.
• Using innovative design and technology so equipment is very small.
• Only one lifting pump, no other pumps, less power consumption.
• Transportable equipment, less space needed, saving civil work cost.

RICS – how it works

RICS – Main process

1. Put the submerged raw water intake filter into the water.
2. Open the feed lifting pump for water purification.
3. Sludge will be discharged from the sedimentation tank, automatically every 2-3 weeks.
4. Sand filtration will be siphon backwashed without any pump automatically, the period will be designed by raw water quality.
