Water resource recovery facilities across North America and around the world are facing increasingly stringent effluent total phosphorus limits. The addition of tertiary filtration is frequently required to meet these permit limits. Aqua-Aerobic Systems is a worldwide leader in tertiary phosphorus removal utilizing pile cloth media filtration.

Aqua-Aerobic Systems offers five different filtration media options that are designed to meet low level phosphorus limits. Most commonly, plants turn to the OptiFiber PES-14 pile cloth filtration media with a nominal rating of 5 microns. This media has been proven to achieve phosphorus limits as low as 0.043 mg/L.
