Curved screens / SievesThe static curved screen is a simple mecanical
filter. The filter surface has a curved or parabolic surface. The
advantage if this shape is that the suspended solids, which are sieved
from the water, will slide down the parabolic surface and are collected in
a container. Water will go through the parabolic surface and is collected
in the bottom of the sieve (see exploded drawing below). The cleaning can
(if necessary) be performed by brushes. |
