• Filters require periodic backwashing and carbon replacement/regeneration to maintain efficiency.

• Used in Effluent Treatment Plants (ETPs), Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs), and Water Treatment Plants (WTPs).

• Common in textiles, pharmaceuticals, metal finishing, food and beverage, and chemical processing industries.

• Removes regulated contaminants, enhances treatment process efficiency, and provides secondary protection in treatment systems.

• High removal efficiency of chlorine, organics, pesticides, and other pollutants.

• Prolongs life and efficiency of downstream treatment equipment.

• Cost-effective with long-lasting media.

• Supports environmental regulation compliance and helps achieve discharge quality standards.

• Wipro Water specializes in integrated activated carbon filters with options for manual and automatic operation.

• Various sizes and customizations are available to cater to different industrial wastewater volumes and qualities.

Activated carbon filter vessels enhance industrial wastewater treatment by providing reliable adsorption-based purification, crucial for regulatory compliance and environmental protection.
