Prefiltration cartridges and media help manage suspended solids, sediment, turbidity and particulate load before water reaches more sensitive treatment stages.
They are used to support feedwater conditioning, membrane pretreatment, resin protection, polishing stage protection and more stable treatment system operation.
Alcedo supplies prefiltration cartridges and media for facilities and project teams that need practical filtration products supported by technical understanding, internal testing, Australian technology development and manufacturing under ISO 9001 systems.
Prefiltration cartridges are used where defined particulate control, guard filtration or targeted downstream protection is required.
Prefiltration media is used where media-based filtration is needed to manage suspended solids, turbidity or broader particulate loading within the treatment sequence.
Both product types help facilities control feedwater quality before more sensitive treatment stages such as reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, ion exchange or polishing.
Prefiltration performance depends on the cartridge or media, the feedwater and the operating conditions of the treatment process.
Key considerations include feedwater quality, suspended solids concentration, turbidity, particle size distribution, filtration rating, cartridge structure, media type, flow rate, pressure drop, dirt-holding capacity, fouling potential, replacement requirements, backwash requirements and downstream treatment requirements.
Alcedo helps connect prefiltration product selection with practical process requirements, feedwater conditions and long-term treatment system operation.
Membrane technology for water purification, dissolved solids reduction and advanced separation.
Membrane filtration technology for suspended solids removal, fine particulate control and process protection.
Selective membrane technology for hardness reduction, partial salt rejection and refined water chemistry control.
Resin technology for selective ionic removal, polishing, conditioning and water chemistry control.
