Superior Filtration
Industries
Superior filtration has over 36 years’ experience in the filtration industry. We have the expertise to assess your filtration needs and supply fit-for-purpose solutions for almost any wastewater treatment process.
Key industries we work in
With a minimal number of moving parts, and with automation built in to a greater or lesser extent. From the treatment of sewage to oil and gas filters – all of our filters have been designed to require very low levels of maintenance. Their reliability and the levels of automation mean: less risk of downtime and reduced lifetime costs.

Mineral Processing


Mining


Oil & Gas


Petrochemicals


Potable Water & Sewage Wastewater


Other Industries

We understand that no two filtration requirements are exactly the same.
For this reason, we believe in working closely with our clients to determine their specific filtration needs. Only then can we provide the best possible, long-term filtration solution.

Mineral Processing
Filtration is vital for effective management of water. It is an indispensable step in the preparation of process water and facilitates the re-use of water within the plant, as well as helping transform effluent water to a safe-for-discharge state. All of our filters have been designed to require little maintenance, and low levels of management. Their reliability means: less risk of downtime and reduced lifetime costs.
Case Studies
Primary filter for raw water for cement factory in De Hoek.

Mining
Our mining filters play a vital role in managing water globally on many mines. There are many varied needs for filtration in mining and minerals operations. Superior Filtration caters for most of them. A growing need is to make sure that water is re-used, where possible, and that wastewater is disposed of in an environmentally responsible way. All of our filters have been designed to require very low levels of maintenance. Their reliability and the levels of automation mean: less risk of downtime and reduced lifetime costs.
Case Studies

Oil & Gas
The oil and gas industry is divided into two parts. These include upstream and downstream activities. While upstream refers to the sourcing and production of crude oil, downsteam relates to the refining process of crude oil. With a minimal number of moving parts, our oil and gas filters are utilised in both upstream and downstream and have been designed to require little maintenance. Their reliability means: less risk of downtime and reduced lifetime costs.
Case Studies
Side stream filtration for cooling water in Coega.

Petrochemicals
Besides the fact that effective filtration is integral to the operation of petrochemical plants, the importance of water management within the industry, cannot be underestimated. Our filtration systems create a more efficient plant by recycling water and reducing water consumption. They also assist in the environmental imperative of making effluent water safe for discharge.
Industries in which we have experience include:
- NRefining
- NPharmaceutical
- NPlastics

Potable Water & Sewage Wastewater
Municipal water provides water to households and businesses. Filtration plays a vital role in ensuring this water is potable (safe for drinking) and wastewater treatment. Our filtration systems are used to remove any unwanted substances from the ‘raw’ water which enters a water purification plant.
We understand that no two filtration requirements are exactly the same. For this reason, we believe in working closely with our clients to determine their specific filtration needs. Only then can we provide the best possible, long-term filtration solution.
Case Studies
