Abstract

See full text

A filter apparatus in which a generally horizontal bed of filter material is supported in a tank on a porous support above the bottom of the tank and is divided by spaced partitions into individual filter cells above the support and individual filter compartments below the support, and a carriage is mounted for movement along the filter bed and has a collector hood that moves along the top of the bed to collect backwash effluent therefrom and a backwash head arranged to direct backwash fluid into the compartments below the porous support to sequentially backwash the filter cells. A cell scavenging head is mounted on the carriage for movement along the filter bed and arranged to sequentially withdraw fluid from each filter compartment and down-flow scavenge and rinse the associated filter cell subsequent to backwashing of each filter cell.
