Trickling filter is an attached growth process i.e. process in which microorganisms responsible for treatment are attached to an inert packing material. Packing material used in attached growth processes include rock, gravel, slag, sand, redwood, and a wide range of plastic and other synthetic materials.

• Simple , reliable, biological process.
• Suitable in areas where large tracts of land are not available for land intensive treatment system.
• May quality for equivalent secondary discharge standards.
• Effective in treating high concentration of organics depending on the type of medium used.
• Appropriate for small to medium sized communities.
• Rapidly reduce soluble BOD, in applied wastewater.
• Effective nitrification unit.
• Durable process elements.
• Low power requirement.
• Moderate level of skill and technical expertise needed to manage and operate the plant.

Pressure sand filter is highly recommended for the removal of suspended & visible impurities like sand, dust particles & heavy metals etc.PSF is an ideal solution for the systems with high sediment, silt, sand, and turbidity.A typical pressure sand filter consists of a pressure vessel - this could be either vertical or horizontal-fitted with a set of frontal pipe work and valves, graded sand supported by layers of graded under bed consisting of pebbles and silex, a top distributor to distribute the incoming water uniformly throughout the cross section of the filter, and an under drain system to collect filtered water. Fig shows the arrangement of a vertical and horizontal pressure sand filter.

Activated Carbon filters are using for the Removal of Chlorine and Microorganisms thorough adsorption. Definite grade of high quality activated carbon with specialized design of distribution and collection systems will offer maximum efficiency of the removal of chlorine and ensuring long life in the carbon. Activated carbon filtration is most effective in removing organic contaminants, chlorine etc. Because organics are often responsible for taste, odor, and color problems.ACF Unit is a FRP/MSRL vertical pressure vessel. Internally it is fitted with strainer on bottom collecting system. The unit is fitted with SS frontal pipe work & MPV externally. A granular activated carbon is charged on the supporting media of Coarse & Fine Salix.

MultimediaFilter Systems also known as depth filters or turbidity filters contain two or more types of media and gravel under-bedding. The gravel is used as a support to keep smaller medias out of the distribution system and to stop channeling of water. Our multimedia system is design for the removal of turbidity in the water caused by sand, silt, ferric iron and oxidized manganese or sulfur. They are used in applications such as chlorination filtration systems, general turbidity removal and prior to ultraviolet sterilizers or water softeners. Different grade of sand with definite size are the specialty of these filters. These are vertical and horizontal type with specialized design of distribution and collection systems to ensure proper functioning of the system and operate with maximum efficiency. Coarse, Quartz sands are used for this and some cases Garnet is also use as the media of filtration.

The iron removal filters that we manufacture are widely used to eliminate turbidity, suspended particles, color, odor and iron that are available in raw water. These filters are known for their easy operation and give crystal clear water. Iron is unaesthetic parameters present mostly in groundwater, causing unwanted precipitation and color. Next to hardness, the presence of iron is probably the most common water problem faced by consumers and water treatment professionals. Iron and manganese in excess of the suggested maximum contaminant levels (MCL) usually results in discolored water, laundry, and plumbing fixtures.

Mild Steel Welded Pressure Vessel fitted with M. S. Control pipe & C.I. diaphragm valve, strainers, sampling cock, pressure gauge, air compressor and first charge filter media.

SHIVAM offer a wide range of dual media filters which includes Pressure Sand Filters and Activated Carbon Filters. All of our filters are used to remove humidity of the turbidity and organics, dechlorination, etc. These dual media filters have high dirt removal capacity of as the finest sand forms. Thick layer of coarse anthracite is provided along with these filters.

This comprises off sand and anthracite as filtering media and polishing media respectively. Internally it is fitted with inlet distributor and a bottom collecting system. Externally, it is fitted with frontal pipe work and isolation valves. Sand is used for removing the suspended particles and anthracite removes the odor and colour etc to make the water fit for various application. Pebbles and gravels are provided to support to both the media. This filter is to be backwashed after accumulation of suspended solids, however, before carrying out the backwash, air scouring is also to be done for loosening of dirt and suspended solids. Limit for the backwash in these filers is governed by differential pressure across the filter.

• Oil-wetted solids
• Solid stabilized oil droplets
• Biological flocs and waste water solids
• Precipitates and scales
• Clay and mineral particles
• Fly ash
• It also cock-up with existing applications of PSF and ACF.

This filter removes the harmful arsenic acid dissolved in any in water and other liquid so that it does not cause any harmful effect on the health when consumed. The WHO (World Health Organization) advices a maximum concentration of 10 ppb. Although arsenic may be found in surface water, groundwater is the main source of arsenic in water. Consequently, concentrations above 10 ppb may be found naturally in groundwater. In groundwater arsenic exists as water-insoluble inorganic arsenic As-V anions or As-III molecules.

• Proven, state-of-the-art iron-oxide adsorption particles effectively remove BOTH types of Arsenic (III & V) from your water supply
• Iron-oxide used in POU and POE filter systems.
• Operates over a wide range of pH and water quality conditions
• Adsorptive media can operate in water quality where an RO system typically needs pretreatment
• No chemicals are added to your water (like chlorine) and it does not need to be regenerated like ion exchange systems
• No arsenic containing wastewater or large volumes of RO wastewater to discharge into your septic/leach fields.
• Used adsorption particles are easily replaced and are disposable with your regular household trash as non-hazardous solid waste (Maine & NH), check local regulations.
• No wasted water down the drain, like in an RO system
• Consistent arsenic removal performance
• Long adsorption life, up to several years (dependent on Arsenic concentrations and the household water usage rate, etc.)*
• Written arsenic removal performance guarantees
• Replacement of adsorption particles is based upon a pre-determined gallon rating for each particular system (POU or POE) and the raw water quality, which includes any pretreatment equipment
• Costs are similar or less than other systems but our POU requires very little maintenance, except for the periodic changing of the filter media/cartridge and it has an equal or better arsenic removal rate

Fluoride is very common element, found in earths crust. It exists in the form of fluoride in a number of minerals like fluorspar, cryolite and fluorapatite. Fluoride enters in the aquatic system in the dissolved form through industrial discharge form through aluminium industries, phosphite industries, coal plants etc. Higher concentration in drinking water can affect the health adversely. The World Health Organization (WHO) guideline for fluoride is 1.5 mg/liter in drinking water. As per IS 10500 standard the desirable limit for fluoride is 1 ppm and permissible limit is 1.5 ppm in drinking water. Health HazardAbove 2 mg/l Gives chalky white appearance to permanent teethAbove 4 mg/l Causes dense and brittle bone condition, known as Osteoporosis and Skeletal Fluorosis.

Microfiltration is a pressure-driven barrier to suspended solids and bacteria to produce water with very high purity. It is also used as pretreatment for surface water, seawater, and biologically treated municipal effluent before reverse osmosis and other membrane systems. Shivams advanced membrane technologies and depth of experience consistently delivers water to your specifications.
