Microfloc & General Filter Products - History

Microfloc Corporation was founded in 1961 by three engineers who had developed an innovative method for electronic control of coagulation chemical addition.  Microfloc continued to innovate in the ensuing years, developing the mixed media filter bed (1963), the first commercially viable tube settler (1964), and the upflow Adsorption Clarifier system (1981).  Microfloc continues this tradiation of innovation with the Trident HS system, which is the latest development in package treatment systems.

 

General Filter Corporation was founded in 1935 in Ames, Iowa.  General Filter has a long tradition of innovation, beginning with the invention of the ATOMERATOR system - an innovative way of introducing oxygen into a process stream without breaking system pressure.  General Filter became an industry leader for all varieties of manufactured water treatment equipment including pressure filters, clarifiers and aerators.  General Filter innovations include the MULTICELL common-underdrain filter system, the AERALATER package treatment system, Laser Shield direct-retention underdrain caps, and the MULTIWASH backwash system.

Oxidation
Systems efficiently remove unwanted water components and help stabilize the pH of corrosive waters for a large range of flows.  Siemens has been using aeration as an effective, inexpensive method of improving finished water quality since 1935.
