Vertical Flow Media

SDS Vertical Flow Media Modules are designed to remove carbonaceous and nitrogenous BOD while providing anti-fouling characteristics for biodegradation of municipal and industrial wastewaters in trickling filters, anaerobic reactors, and similar biosystems.

The modules are fabricated from rigid, non-flammable PVC sheets, which are UV-protected and resistant to rot, fungi, bacteria, acids, and alkalis commonly found in municipal wastewater.

Superior Solids Flushing

The open geometry and vertical orientation of the AccuPac Vertical Flow Media is designed to shear away excess biosolids, thereby reducing the potential for plugging. Without sharp angles or pockets where excess biomass might accumulate, a thinner biofilm is retained, minimizing loss of effective surface area.

Vertical Flow Advantage

The mid-module splash slope distributes the wastewater onto the thin biofilm, ensuring superior process performance. This unique flow pattern increases redistribution, oxygen transfer, and substrate removal rates.

SDS VF-3800 Media

Ideally suited for nitrification filters where the potential for plugging of the media is a concern.

Surface Area: 131 m2/m3

SDS VF-5000 Media

Ideally suited for aerobic carbonaceous filters and anaerobic reactors for high-strength wastewater treatment.

Surface Area: 98 m2/m3

SDS VF-1900 Media

100% vertical flutes with no mid module splash slope make it ideally suited for aerobic carbonaceous and nitrification Submerged Aerated Filters (SAF plants).

Surface Area: 154 m2/m3
