Deep Well
Deepwell facilities for the disposal of plant waste streams often employ nominally rated spray spun elements, bags, diatomaceous earth filters, and various other types of conventional filtration technology. These labor intensive systems provide protection of the well from occlusion by suspended particle matter, albeit often with high operational cost and limited assurance of reliable fluid quality.
The ongoing challenge facing a deepwell system is the requirement that the formation into which the waste is being pumped must maintain its porous nature in order to operate effectively. Therefore, reliable, effective filtration to capture particles with the potential to plug the formation is critical.
Pentair’s proven advanced separation technologies have been employed in deepwell disposal systems to enhance system reliability, assure well integrity and lower operating costs and system maintenance.

The ProcessOR is a superior separator vessel often used for particle/liquid filtration or separation. It is available to be delivered as a self-contained skid (pictured) or a stand-alone vessel. It is also available custom sized as a capital sale or as a turn-key rental, which is often available within days of the received order.
V-MAX is a coreless filter that flows from the inside-to-outside like a bag filter but V-MAX technology can offer the same online life as a bag filter in a vessel that is roughly half the diameter. This is possible since the V-MAX design offers up to ten times the available filtration media in the same element envelope.
Compared to conventional cartridge filters, COMPAX saves you money by lowering operating costs and reducing disposal costs. When comparing filters with the same efficiencies or Beta ratings, nothing outperforms the cost/performance value achieved with COMPAX.
