Whether the target is tertiary polish, wet-weather capacity, or reuse-grade water, the right filtration or membrane technology depends on the stream in front of it. We represent a range of platforms so the selection starts with your water, not our warehouse.
Tertiary filtration in a compact disc configuration
Aqua Disc filters use a rotating disc configuration fitted with pile cloth media to pull TSS, BOD, and phosphorus out of secondary effluent, with color removal and reuse-grade polishing available where required.
Because the cloth media filters continuously rather than in batch backwash cycles, the units run in a smaller footprint than a comparable sand filter and generate less backwash volume to manage.
The same disc platform, sized for peak wet-weather flow
Aqua Storm applies the same cloth media disc technology in a configuration built for the high-flow, high-solids surges that come with wet weather and combined sewer overflow control.
It's an economical way to add wet-weather capacity at the plant without oversizing the entire secondary process for a handful of storm events a year.
Membrane filtration matched to the stream and the budget
Ceramic membranes bring an inorganic, highly durable filtration media to demanding streams — abrasive solids, aggressive cleaning chemistry, and long duty cycles are where ceramic tends to earn its higher first cost back.
Polymeric membranes cover a broader range of MBR, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration applications where footprint and capital cost are the priority, with performance that fits most municipal and industrial reuse projects.
Treatment trains built around your specific PFAS profile
PFAS treatment is rarely one piece of equipment — it's a train that typically pairs filtration or membrane pretreatment with adsorption or destructive technology, matched to the specific PFAS compounds, concentrations, and discharge target in play.
We work through that stack with you, from bench-scale questions through the equipment that ends up on the slab.
From a single piece of replacement equipment to a full plant process flow, PLZ Water Tech works alongside your team to design, size, and source the right technology.
