ABSTRACT:
A filtration apparatus including a rotatable drum and a filter member defining at least a part of the side wall of the drum. A liquid containing solid particles, such as used wash water from a vehicle washing facility, is introduced into the drum by a sump pump or the like and a motor including an electrically-operated brake rotates the drum at a sufficient speed to force a liquid filtrate or filtered water outwardly through the filter member and cause a layer of relatively dry solids to collect on the inner surface of the filter member. Operation of the drum motor is terminated at the same time or shortly after operation of the sump pump is terminated and the brake is energized at the same time. While the drum is being braked to a complete stop, a pressurized fluid, such as filtered water forced through the filter member, is sprayed onto the outer and inner surfaces of the filter member to dislodge the solid particles collected on the inner surface of the filter member and these solid particles are discharged from the bottom of the drum.
