Wastewater Treatment Filtration Specialists

One Source for Every Liquid Filtration Need in Your Treatment Process

Wastewater treatment operations — municipal, industrial, and process — require filtration at multiple points in the treatment cycle. From coarse solids removal through fine polishing to pre-filtration for reverse osmosis systems, every stage demands the right filtration media and the right equipment configuration.

American Fabric Filter manufactures and supplies a comprehensive range of liquid filtration products for wastewater treatment operations of every type and scale. We supply municipal treatment plants, industrial facilities with on-site wastewater treatment, food and beverage processors, chemical manufacturers, and any operation that needs to treat water to meet regulatory discharge standards or reclaim it for reuse.

  • Vessel filter bags for primary solids removal
  • Cartridge filters for fine and polishing filtration
  • Filter presses for sludge dewatering and solids separation
  • Belt and drum filters for continuous dewatering operations
  • Reverse osmosis pre-filtration to protect membrane systems
  • Filter housings and replacement media for existing systems
  • Municipal, industrial, and process wastewater applications
Our Core Solutions

Liquid Filtration Products Built for Wastewater Treatment

Vessel Bags & Cartridge Filters

Vessel filter bags and cartridge filters for primary solids removal through fine polishing filtration in wastewater treatment systems. Available in a wide range of media, micron ratings, and housing configurations to match your treatment process requirements.

Filter Presses & Sludge Dewatering

Filter press cloths, plates, belts, and drum filter media for sludge dewatering and solids separation in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. Custom fabrication available for any filter press size or configuration.

RO Pre-Filtration & Housings

Cartridge filters, housings, and pre-filtration systems to protect reverse osmosis membranes from fouling. Critical for water reuse applications and operations requiring high-purity treated effluent from industrial or municipal wastewater streams.

The Wastewater Treatment Industry’s
Trusted Filtration Partner

Every Stage of the Treatment Process

From coarse solids removal through fine polishing and RO pre-filtration, we supply products for every filtration stage in your treatment cycle. One vendor covers your full process — inlet to effluent.

Custom Fabrication for Any System

Filter press cloths, belt filter media, vessel bags, and cartridges are all custom-fabricated to match your equipment’s exact dimensions and process requirements. We work from your specs, existing media, or equipment make and model.

Municipal & Industrial — Any Scale

We supply municipal treatment plants, industrial facilities, food processors, chemical manufacturers, and any operation treating water for regulatory discharge compliance or process water reuse — at any throughput volume.

Protect Your RO Membranes

RO membrane replacement is expensive. Proper pre-filtration is the most cost-effective way to extend membrane life. We supply the right pre-filtration cartridges and housings to protect your RO system and maximize its service interval.

Common Questions About Wastewater Filtration

Can’t find what you’re looking for? Our team is ready to help you spec the right solution.

We supply vessel filter bags in a wide range of media and micron ratings for wastewater treatment applications — from coarse solids removal through fine and polishing filtration. Media options include felt, wound, melt-blown, and membrane types in polypropylene, polyester, and specialty materials depending on your chemical environment and temperature range. We can also fabricate custom sizes to fit non-standard housings.
Yes. Filter press cloths are one of our core products for wastewater treatment. We fabricate press cloths in woven and non-woven fabrics to match your press plate size and configuration — available in polypropylene, polyester, and other materials suited to your specific sludge chemistry and operating conditions. Send us your press dimensions or a sample cloth and we will fabricate a match.
For reverse osmosis pre-filtration in wastewater reuse systems, we typically recommend a multi-stage approach: coarser pre-filtration to remove larger particles and TSS, followed by 5-micron and 1-micron cartridge polishing filters before the RO membrane. The right specification depends on your feed water quality and the RO system’s manufacturer SDI requirements. Our team will help you design the right pre-filtration train for your system.
Yes. We supply replacement belt filter fabrics and drum filter media for continuous dewatering operations in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. Belt filter fabrics are available in a range of weave patterns and media grades to match your machine’s requirements and your sludge characteristics. Provide your equipment make, model, and belt dimensions and we will match or improve on your current media.
Yes. We supply municipal wastewater treatment plants, industrial facilities with on-site treatment systems, food and beverage processors, chemical manufacturers, mining operations, and any other operation that treats water for regulatory discharge compliance or process water reuse. If you treat water — at any volume or for any purpose — we have the filtration products to support your process.
