The Heron SAF unit is a real work horse at the Graton CSD WRRF. It allowed us to specify Schreiber Fuzzy Filters to produce T22 Effluent from 2ndary pond effluent & avoid using membrane technology. The SAF typically delivers 1.5 NTU effluent to the FF’s where the FF discharge standard is 2.0 NTU. This high level of performance allows longer FF run times between backwash. We found Heron to be excellent to work with in the pilot testing, design, & construction stages.
