Industrial Process Applications & Solutions

Many environmental remediation applications require the removal and filtration of suspended solids from contaminated water. Contaminated water can come from a variety of sources which may include: storm water run-off, groundwater, manufacturing processes, pond clean up, excavation and de-watering projects.

Each of these situations involve the release of water, which may contain VOC's or other contaminants. Without treatment, these impurities may cause environmental damage or contamination. Activated carbon filtration is an effective method of dealing with suspended solids, oils and VOC's within contaminated water. An activated carbon filter, or adsorber, with granular activated carbon can treat the water, separate solids and waste and remove contaminants, thereby returning safe, remediated water back into the environment.

TIGG fabricates a wide variety of activated carbon filtration products from Activated carbon adsorbers to granular activated carbon media to rentals and systems for treating most any size filtration project.

Suspended solids can be effectively removed by activated carbon filters, multi-media filters or filters containing special zeolites. TIGG provides the filters, piping, valves and controls for these applications.

Activated Carbon Filtration - Water Filtration | Case Studies

Skid Mounted Multimedia Filters		Activated carbon filtration at a Western Pennsylvania industrial plant: An Industrial plant needed water filtration to remove particulates prior to the process water going to a carbon adsorption system. TIGG provided two 5' diameter 100 psig ASME Code, skid mounted, pre-piped multi-media filters. The water filtration and back washing operations were automatically controlled via a programmable logic controller. Back washing was initiated when a preset differential pressure was detected.
