filtration. Most rapid sand filters contain 24-30 inches of sand, but some newer filters are deeper. The sand used is generally 0.4 to 0.6 mm in diameter. This is larger than the sand used in slow rate filtration. The coarser sand in the rapid filters has larger voids that do not fill as easily.

The contaminants are metabolised by the bacteria, fungi and protozoa. The water produced from an exemplary slow sand filter is of excellent quality with 90-99% bacterial cell count reduction. Slow sand filters slowly lose their performance as the biofilm thickens and thereby reduces the rate of flow through the filter.

Slow sand filter design. As the title indicates, the speed of filtration is changed in the slow sand filter, however, the biggest difference between slow and rapid sand filter, is that the top layer of sand is biologically active, as microbial communities are introduced to the system. The recommended and usual depth of the filter is 0.9 to 1.5 ...

The sand filter described below is designed for domestic use only. Water source. It is important to start off with a fairly clean source of water, so you will need to get a water sample tested at a laboratory (details of which usually appear in the Yellow Pages). Sand filters cannot cope with heavy metals or other excessive pollutants.

the public.2 Slow sand filters were first used in London in 1820 to treat water from the River Thames. From about the 1930s water treatment by coagulation and rapid gravity filtration or pressure filtration tended to replace slow sand filtration in new plants and, in some cases, slow sand filters were replaced by rapid gravity filters
