What are the Causes of Rapid Sand Filter Clogging?
Published on by Dr Lokesh Kumar, Chartered Chemist, PhD, Chemist at Delhi Jal Board, Government of National Capital Territory Delhi, India in Technology
Hello, I am working with municipal water treatment facility in Delhi, India.
We are facing a huge problem at our water filtration plant as sand filters are clogging/choking every 4-6 hours.
This problem is making our water filtration vulnerable and we need to backwash the filters multiple times per day. This is harming our water treatment efficiency.
Can anyone suggest a reason behind it and, if possible, a solution?
Please help.
