Flexible Ceramic Filtration for River Water Supply and Wastewater Reuse in Sugar Processing

A river water filtration plant was implemented to provide a stable utility water supply for the sugar processing industry, with the added flexibility to be converted into a wastewater recycling system when required.

Challenge

Limited space and a small footprint called for a single-stage filtration solution capable of handling fluctuating feed water conditions.

Solution

The customer also prioritized a sustainable and long-lasting technology. CERAFILTEC’s submerged ceramic filtration system was the obvious choice, as it can reliably treat surface water without extensive pre-treatment steps such as settling or coarse filtration.

Results & Benefits

The result is a compact, robust, and consistent single-stage filtration plant that ensures dependable utility water supply while supporting future water reuse needs.
