Hydrofilters

Hydrofilters are a type of filtration system that utilizes water as the primary medium for removing contaminants from a fluid or gas. They operate on the principle of passing the substance to be filtered through a body of water, where particles and dissolved substances are trapped. Different designs exist, but a common method involves a chamber where the contaminated substance is bubbled through or cascaded over water. As the substance interacts with the water, impurities adhere to the water molecules or settle out. The cleaned substance then exits the system, leaving the contaminants behind in the water. Hydrofilters are often employed in industrial processes, air purification systems, and even some domestic applications for water treatment. Their effectiveness can vary depending on the specific design and the nature of the contaminants being removed. Maintenance typically involves regular draining and refilling of the water or cleaning of collected sediment.
