Rehash pressure filter?


While I have all the needed parts to make a simple pressure filtration system shown previously. Id bet a 3-5gallon HD (HDPE) bucket would work quite well given its large filtration surface.Similar to the other suggested filter set-up a circle cut out with multiple holes to fit the bucket with interior stays
affixed to the bucket upon which it rests.
A couple layers of med filterpaper can be used to begin followed by the use of tougher filter materials.Perhaps diamataceous earth followed by more filter paper and another disc to hold in place.Another Use might be with charcoal filter media between filter papers.
A few PSI over that large surface area should move thru and filter some of the toughest jobs.

As for an air pressure source I would think a common tire pump to a borrowed tire filling bomb,or power air pump would suffice.I plan on getting the nitrates I payed for in that calcinit making short work of that flocculant. And maybe in future undesirable toxins by use of a charcoal material.

Obviously a borrowed design from zenoid thats spawned some good interest.
