Industrial water systems use water filters to reduce the level of solids in water from:
- Industrial
- semiconductor
- manufacturing
- refining
- oil and natural gas production processes
The wastewater may contain harmful chemicals to humans, plants, or animals. Three types of filters are commonly used in industrial settings: Gravity filters, pressure filters, and constructed wetlands. Pressure filters have two variations: multimedia and higher-pressure micron or cartridge filters. Constructed wetlands or natural filters are not often utilized in industrial processes. Based on the requirements to obtain environmental permits and safeguard the ecosystem.
