    no but most Municipal Wastewater Treatment Equipment is more than a metal screen that takes chucks out of the water most plants contain such erumpent as Memcor CMF Microfiltration. The Memcor CMF-S uses a membrane with a 0.2-micron nominal pore size and demonstrates up to 6 log removal of Giardia and Cryptosporidium. A vacuum pump draws water through the membrane fibers of sub-modules submerged in the open top filter tanks. The fibers are the same polypropylene material as those used in the conventional CMF process, but the Memcor CMF-S operates under vacuum, so maximum driving pressure is only 85-100kPa. This lower pressure limit is not the disadvantage it first appears because filter cake characteristics improve at lower pressures.

    And MircoFloc Trident, the Trident Water Treatment Systems are Packaged water treatment plants designed to provide a combination of excellent performance treating surface water with space and capital cost savings. The system is provided with all the valves, controls, chemical feed and blowers. The Trident technology has been used in over 500 hundred applications including potable water, drinking water, tertiary treatment , Title 22 water reuse, and clarification filtration. It is also being used industrially for process water treatment and Pretreatment to RO. The Trident Water Treatment System design consists of four features which combine to make it the most advanced water treatment product line of its kind. These features are the Adsorption Clarifier, Mixed Media Filtration, Triton Direct Retention Underdrains and Coagulation Control. The modular Trident® A design is used for flows from 350 gpm (0.5 mgd) and up on waters with up to 100 NTU or 100 color units. The largest single steel tank module can treat 2.0 mgd and can be shipped on an ordinary trailer truck. Shipping by truck allows each factory-built module to be sent direct to the job site, which simplifies and shortens on-site construction. The Trident LP is used for the same flows as the Trident A, but are designed for moderate (30 NTU or 30 color units) quality raw water sources. The Trident® LP has a lower tank height and a smaller footprint, reducing the overall cost of the system. Each plant contains:
    --An Adsorption Clarifier(tm) combining flocculation and clarification into a single process step using less than 60% of the area normally needed for these functions
    --A Mixed Media filter using three or more granular media layered and graded downward from coarse to very fine. Solids removal is occurs throughout the entire depth of the bed.
    --Low profile underdrain screens with slots as fine as 0.002" to provide direct retention of the Mixed Media and air/water backwash. Eliminating intermediate support gravel makes more room for treatment media.
    --Aquaritrol® II microprocessor automatically modulates chemical feed to maintain desired treated water quality based on real time operations.

    I do believe that there is more stuff out there but this is all i can remeber at the time
