SLOW SAND FILTER
• First
used
for
treatment
of
water
in
1804
in Scotland and subsequently in London.
• The elements of slow sand filter are:
Supernatant (raw) water
A bed of graded sand
An under‐drainage system
A system of filter control valves.

Supernatant (raw) water
• 1 ‐
1.5 metre
• Purposes:To overcome the resistance of filter bed
To provide waiting period (3 to 12 hours)
• Level
of
supernatant
water
is
always
kept constant.

Sand bed
• Most important part of the filter.
• 1 ‐
1.2 meter.
• Effective diameter of sand grains: 0.2‐0.3 mm.
• It
is
supported
by
layer
of
graded
gravels
(30‐ 40 cm)
• Rate
of
filtration:
2‐3
m.g.a.d.
(million
gallons per acre per day)
• Vital layer

Vital layer
• Schmutzdecke
layer,
Zoogleal
layer
or
Biological layer.
• ‘Ripening’
of the filter.
• ‘Heart’
of slow sand filter.

Filter control
• To maintain a constant rate of filtration.
• ‘Venturi meter’
• ‘Loss of head’
: if > 1.3 meter, it is uneconomical.
• Filter cleaning:• Scrapping off the top portion of sand layer• Manually or by mechanical equipment.

Take home message
• Purification
of
water
is essential.
• Rapid
sand
filters
are preferred
but,
slow
sand
filters are also in use.• Chlorination
of
water
is
effective
and
cheap method for disinfection.
• Everyone can play his/her role
in
purification
of
water e.g. at your home.
