De todos modos y a reserva de que

te existen mas de 200 plantas de fltros
mecanicOs en- los Estados UnidOs su

Las principales ventajas de los FL

les pOr hora) en- pOder usar los Goa
gulantes para ayudar la filtraci6n; y
en- la facilidad con que Sc practican las
limpiezas de los lechos de arena.
Nuestro plan es fltrar 100000 ga
lones Ell "a horas para cubrir ell con
sumo de 20 amos, pero para reducir
ell gasto de momento podr1an instalarse
filtros para millones de galones sola-
mente, dejando en- la planta sitios ade-
cuados para ir aumentando los apara-
tos a medida que 10 exigieran las cir
cunstancias
Ell costo en- los Estados Unidos de
