Pilot-Plant Study of the Tertiary Filtration of Wastewater Using Local Sand

Local sand with E.S. of 2.4 mm, U.C. of 1.21, and size range of 2.0 to 3.36 mm was studied using a field-scale pilot-filter, which has a cross-section of 30 cm x 30 cm. Three filter runs were performed using filtration rates of 4, 8 and 18 m3/m2/hr. The three runs were continued up to 40,100 and 53...
