- Highlights of the GKD exhibition booth (Hall 8, B19) include the patented CAPTURION road runoff filter for microplastic filtration and the TRIMETRIC and VOLUMETRIC filter meshes which have been especially customized for industrial dust and exhaust gas filtration in the automotive industry, as well as other areas.
- GKD experts Markus Knefel, Dominik Herper, and Daniel Venghaus will be at the FILTECH conference to present the company’s Vortex technology, a proprietary water permeability test for porous materials, as well as the URBAN FILTER project, which is where the CAPTURION product was also developed.
Focus on water management
GKD will be presenting cutting-edge mesh solutions for water management at FILTECH 2024. The company’s innovative filter and separation technologies were specially developed to meet the needs of the process industry and municipal water management sector. One of the highlights is the patented CAPTURION system used for microplastic filtration. This technology is used in storm sewers to capture a large proportion of tire debris resulting from abrasion which would otherwise be carried into the environment by rainwater runoff.
Special mesh for hot gas filtration
In addition to solutions for water and microplastic filtration, the GKD booth will also be showcasing mesh technologies used for hot gas filtration. The focus here is on the TRIMETRIC and VOLUMETRIC filtration meshes which have been specifically optimized for industrial dust filtration and exhaust gas filtration in the automotive industry.
