Technical Note Comparison of filter
performance on glass industry process water
The treatment of process water from glass manufacturing plant, Trakya Cam
Sanayi, Mersin/Turkey has been studied to remove bacteria (desulfovibrio
desulforicans) in suspension causing corrosion problems in the water
distribution systems. The process proposed consists of mainly
coagulation/flocculation and then ultrafiltration. The results were compared
with Culligan filters, used as a test propose, installed at the water
treatment plant of Trakya Cam Sanayi. While the combined use of flocculation
and ultrafiltration (Supercap 100 membrane filter) was efficient for
bacteria removal of 89.85%, Culligan filtration system was removed only
35.51%. It may be concluded that membrane filtration system had better
filtration capacity than Culligan filtration system considering the test
performances. |
