Upflow limestone contactors
of constant height
Our research is our strength®
Since 2002, we manufacture custom limestone contactors using the most efficient design for the remineralisation of soft or desalinated waters, based on our internal research and development
Key benefits of DrinTec™ limestone contactors:
- Upflow to avoid underdrain clogging
- Internal upper silo for 30 days autonomy
- Constant calcite feeding for a continuous operation without backwashing
- Constant calcite height for a constant water quality
Solutions for small and large-scale projects
Wide range of options to meet different requirements from 70 m³/d upwards:
- Vertical tanks in FRP, PP or SS316
- Horizontal tanks in FRP
- Rectangular concrete cells
- Containerised FRP tanks
