Mobile water filtration units for remote locations

According to a UNESCO study, 2.2 billion people do not have access to clean drinking water. ANDRITZ helps solve that problem by providing a containerized mobile water filtration unit, the ANDRITZ Mobile Filtration Unit (AMFU). The AMFU has been developed to work at any location with access to surface or ground water and a power supply as a standalone water filtration plant. The range of applications for the AMFU is vast. Its compact design allows for the installation at remote or isolated areas (e.g. less developed regions or islands) to provide permanent access to drinking water.

Because of its plug & play concept, user-friendly functions and fast intallation it´s the perfect solution when you need fresh drinking water quickly, like in emergency situations and natural disaster areas. The AMFU is equipped with open gravity filters with underdrain botttom floor, a backwash system and can be enhanced with a water disinfection system. Everything equipped in two containers to generate clean drinking water wherever you need it.

Fully adaptable to your industrial application

In industrial use the AMFU with its scalable capacity is the most flexible and effective supplement to produce extra process water whenever needed. Sites with limited space can easily integrate the container based design, for temporary or permanent production. During maintenance works at a full scale water filtration plant the AMFU helps keeping your process up and running and avoiding costly downtimes.
