| Abstract: | ABSTRACT: Rapid-rate filter with sand or anthracite as filter media was studied at filtration rates of 4.5 and 9.0 m3/m2-h. Different parameters were evaluated by adopting a proposed simplified model. A suitable combination of anthracite-sand as filter media was given by using corresponding filter parameters of single-medium filters and break-even optimization technique. |
