Abstract:
A system for removing sediment from water is disclosed. The exemplary embodiments described herein disclose a system with a chamber having a deck positioned inside to divide it into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. The deck may have a plurality of holes to hold filtration elements and also may have a ridge or a skirt or both. The filtration elements may be filter cartridges with multiple elongated filter elements that extend down into the lower chamber.

Claim (Index 13):
A system for removing suspended particles from a liquid, the system comprising:\n a filtration chamber having an inlet for introducing liquid into the filtration chamber for a treatment flow through the filtration chamber, and an outlet; a deck positioned within the filtration chamber and dividing the filtration chamber into an upper chamber and a lower chamber, a raised outlet weir atop the deck, wherein the deck includes a plurality of holes therein including multiple first holes at a first side of the outlet weir and at least one second hole at a second side of the outlet weir; wherein each first hole has a respective first filtration element mounted therein; wherein the treatment flow passes through the lower chamber, up through the first filtration elements to the upper chamber, over the outlet weir and then to the outlet; and when flow of the liquid into the filtration chamber via the inlet subsides, the treatment flow also subsides, and liquid that has accumulated above the deck on the first side of the outlet weir then flows downward through the first filtration elements to backwash the first filtration elements, causing liquid in the lower chamber to flow upward through the second hole in the deck and then to the outlet without passing over the outlet weir.
