    The common answer could be: Filter with holes sizes are the smaller than sizes of bacteria gives mainly mechanical bacteria rejection.

    The second solution is the filter with bactericide ability when body of it is made from special material.

    However, filtration as disinfection processing is palliative (partial decision).

    Hello Misho,
    The great diffictulty in filtering bacteria is the micro filters can only handle a small volume of fluid, if you are treating waste water this is not practical, to eliminate bacteris you should be considering steralisation by the use of a halogen such as chlorine , bromine of preferably using ozone. UV is another alternative to destroying bacteria, Micro filters will clog very quickly and be extremly costly. You can achieve a very low plate count with steralisation , Happy tyo give further advice if required. Kevin Murphy Advanced Algal Technologies Limited Australia
