Filter Innovations has extensive experience treating both industrial and municipal wastewater. Our wastewater treatment systems include innovative and reliable processes for the removal of organic, inorganic and biological contaminants. These systems can be configured to meet even the strictest regulatory requirements, including those for surface discharge.

Typical applications of FII wastewater treatment systems include the following industries and municipal sites:

Activated Carbon & Media

FII wastewater treatment systems have traditionally used activated carbon and specialty media filtration (e.g., FII Filtral, FII Organite-52 and FII Zeolite). The unique properties of these products are essential to the removal of organic and inorganic contaminants from wastewater.

Filtration Systems

Filter Innovations supplies a wide range of filtration equipment, including bag filters, cartridge filters, multimedia filters, canisters, vessels, adsorbers, automatic self-cleaning filters and self-indexing filters.

FII filtration techniques and equipment can be used as independent treatment systems or as components of complex, multi-faceted systems.

Coalesers and Flow & Plug System

Filter Innovations offers a variety of systems for the treatment of wastewater containing oil and petroleum-based hydrocarbon products. These systems can accommodate a wide range of flow rates and contaminant concentrations and include:

• Oil/water separators/coalescers
• Flow & Plug Systems

Chemical Treatment

Filter Innovations Chemical Treatment Systems utilize pH adjustment, coagulation and flocculation, precipitation and floatation techniques. These systems can be used with a variety of wastewater types and a wide range of contaminants, including:

• Highly concentrated suspended solids
• Acids and caustics
• Emulsified oil
• Iron, manganese and phosphorus
• Insoluble and soluble substances containing heavy metals

Membrane Biological Reactors

Membrane biological reactor (MBR) technology is an attractive solution in many domestic, municipal, industrial and agricultural wastewater treatment applications.

Features of MBR technology include:

• Elimination of clarification and tertiary filtration
• Smaller footprint compared to conventional activated sludge treatment
• Significantly improved water quality
  • BOD: < 5 mg/L
  • Turbidity: < 1 NTU
  • Virus removal: 99.999%

Filter Innovations can provide standard or custom-built MBR treatment systems for many applications. Depending on flow rate, site conditions and client requirements, FII MBR systems may be suitable for use in:

• Septic tanks
• Containerized systems
• Engineered building

For all projects, Filter Innovations offers the following options:

• Control/telemetry systems
• Pilot testing
• Rental supply
• Technical support
