For exceptional education and networking, water professionals
from all over the world travel to AWWA conferences to stay on top of new
developments. Forsta joined the
annual conference and exhibition this year to meet with representatives from
many companies who have expressed interest in what Forsta has to offer.
Over the last few years, Forsta has responded to consistent
feedback from engineers in the water treatment field. Forsta’s current line of self-cleaning screen filters are
more robust, waste less water, offer more open screen area, and are available
in the widest range of materials; including high-grade stainless steel alloys
and Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP.)*
The conference was an excellent opportunity to explore the
expanding role that self-cleaning filters play as pre-filters for a number of
different prevalent technologies.
Among the technologies represented at ACE11 that require prefiltration were
Ion Exchange, Ultrafiltration, Nanofiltration, Microfiltration, Reverse
Osmosis, and UV Disinfection.
Suspended particle removal is imperative across all industries
that utilize water, and ACE11 was a great meeting place for industrial,
municipal, and agricultural water professionals to discuss optimal filtration
techniques. The projects concerning the engineers at ACE11 were diverse and
included water sources of all varieties.
Forsta addressed filtration applications including; of river water for
cruise ships, sea water for cooling and recycled water for irrigation.
Overall, the event was a great success. The conference afforded a great
opportunity to connect with colleagues and share the newest information
available.
