Newterra Aquip Media Filtration System

Aquip Systems are available in several performance levels designed for the removal of pollutants such as suspended solids, turbidity, heavy metals (including dissolved metals), organics (e.g. volatile hydrocarbons, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)), and nutrients (e.g. nitrogen and phosphorus). Targeted metals include copper, zinc, iron, lead, aluminum, nickel and cadmium. The Aquip systems are typically installed above ground with a single pump station in a simple, easy-to-use configuration.

The Aquip Media Filtration System’s performance has been demonstrated at a wide range of industrial sites including scrap and recycling, galvanizing, metal fabrication, wood treating, automobile salvage, transportation equipment, food processing, power generation, marine and a host of others. Aquip is available in several modular configurations. Whether the structure is steel, plastic, concrete, fiberglass, earthen, or owner-supplied, Aquip owners can expect the same high performance and reliability in either retrofit, new construction or portable configurations.
