Low-maintenance biology with low energy demand

FUCHS trickling filter systems, featuring low-maintenance technology and durable, structured plastic packing, are characterized by their high operational reliability and low energy consumption.

The core component of a trickling filter system is the filling media. The media is available in cross-fluted or vertical-fluted designs.
Due to the wide range of different specific surfaces and flow configurations, the filling media can be adapted to the respective project-specific requirements.

In addition to the tank layout and the selection of the filter media, the hydraulic design and specification, using rotary sprinklers or nozzles, play a crucial role in meeting the discharge requirements.

FUCHS supports planning and design with engineering services on request and supplies all components of a trickling filter system.
