Filtration for Energy & the Environment – Rainwater & Microplastic Filtration

Reliable filtration plays a central role in energy and environmental technology. Water from industrial plant, rainwater or process fluids frequently contains solids, sediment or micro-contaminants that need to be removed before further use or discharge. Suitable filtration technology ensures these substances are reliably retained.
Winkler Filtertechnik develops filter bags and technical filtration solutions for applications in environmental technology and water-related plant. Our filter products enable straightforward, reliable filtration and can be used both in fixed installations and mobile applications.
Filtration solutions from Winkler Filtertechnik are used in industrial plant as well as municipal applications or technical environmental projects, for example with infiltration shaft filter bags, fine filter bags, or a filter bag for catch baskets.
Filtration Solutions for Water and Environmental Systems
Many environmental technology applications require solids to be reliably removed from water. This is especially important for rainwater, industrial wastewater or process water, to protect equipment and meet environmental requirements.
Filter bags enable straightforward filtration right at the source. Solids are retained while water drains away in a controlled manner. This lets equipment run efficiently and reduces maintenance workload.
The filtration technology can be used flexibly and suits both temporary applications and permanent installations; for secure mounting, the infiltration shaft filter bag mounting kit is a practical addition.
Filtering Microplastics and Solids From Water
Microplastics and fine solids are increasingly entering rainwater and surface water. Contamination from tyre wear, road dust and other particles is especially common in urban areas. Targeted filtration helps retain these substances and reduce the burden on waterways.
Filter bags for road drains and drainage systems enable easy retrofitting of existing installations. Solids are reliably retained without significantly impeding water flow.
Typical applications include:
- Filtering microplastics from rainwater
- Filtering road drainage
- Retaining sediment
- Filtering surface water
- Removing debris from water
Suitable filtration technology helps reduce environmental impact and makes it easier to meet regulatory requirements.
Reliable Rainwater Filtration
Rainwater frequently contains sand, leaves, organic matter and fine sediment. Without filtration, these substances can clog pipework or affect equipment.
Filter systems enable reliable cleaning of rainwater before it reaches soakaways or storage systems. Infiltration shaft filter bags and fine filter bags for cistern inlets are well suited to this.
A robust filter solution that works reliably even under changing conditions is especially important for larger rainwater volumes; the mounting kit supports secure installation.
Filtration Technology for Industrial Wastewater
Many industrial applications generate wastewater containing solids. These substances need to be removed before discharge or further processing.
Suitable filtration ensures sediment and particles are retained. At the same time, fluids can often be reused, conserving resources. For compact dewatering solutions, sizes such as 0.125 m³, 0.5 m³, 0.8 m³ or 1.25 m³ are available depending on volume.
Filter bags offer a compact, cost-effective solution for filtering industrial wastewater and process fluids; for fast dewatering processes, the fast-drain filter bag (Color Drain) or the Classic sludge dewatering filter bag is also suitable.
For special requirements, custom sizes can also be produced.
Benefits of Our Filtration Technology in Environmental Applications
Filtration solutions for environmental applications need to be reliable and durable. Our filter products are built for permanent use and enable even filtration despite changing loads.
The materials used are matched to water-related applications and enable safe filtration even with larger water volumes; a scraper for cleaning filter systems supports maintenance and cleaning.
Typical benefits include:
- Reliable filtration
- Robust materials
- Flexible use
- Long service life
- Easy application
Custom Filtration Solutions for Environmental Projects
Environmental technology applications often vary considerably in water volume, load and installation situation. That's why custom filtration solutions frequently make sense.
Winkler Filtertechnik develops and manufactures filter systems to individual requirements. Size, material and design can be adapted to the specific application. Use our filtration product advice service, or go straight to our custom solutions.
Precision Cuts for Technical Textiles
When environmental projects require special geometries or installation situations, textile components can be cut to precise dimensions. With our laser cutting for technical textiles, we produce cuts from synthetic fabrics and nonwovens to DXF specifications, from sample parts through to full production.
Winkler Filtertechnik for the Environment and Energy Sector
Winkler Filtertechnik supplies filtration solutions for environmental technology, water-related plant and industrial applications. Our filter systems are built for practical use and enable reliable filtration across a wide range of applications.
For water treatment applications and chemical process media, filter bags for ion-exchange resin (water treatment) and filter bags for ion-exchange resin (fine chemicals) are also suitable.
By combining in-house manufacturing with hands-on development, we create filtration solutions that are built for long-term use and deliver stable filtration performance. Our filtration technology helps clean water, protect equipment and reduce environmental impact; for repair and processing, sewing thread is also available.
