I knew nothing about equine water-walkers until now: I’m intrigued by the waste issues they generate and so I followed the links you offered [member=169267]ho !sheep![/member] However, I’m not a lot better off from viewing the web-sites. So bear with me while I try to deconstruct your issues & objectives.
Firstly, your problem is the high cost of ‘disposing’ of contaminated water waste via the sewers;
But also, filters become well congested with solids and there are issues related to practical cleaning operations;
And so, how to dispose of (recycle) contaminated water without incurring sewage costs and how to minimise filter clogging/cleaning.
So:
My 1st thought is that water-walker manufacturers are fully aware of the issues and surely would have worked out and be offering complete enviro’ friendly and cost-effective solution/s already if it was “easy” !
My 2nd thought is that you need to minimise recirculation of water during horse-walking operations: in other words, you need to be able to refresh the vast majority of water during horse/s walking session/s and divert contaminated water (particularly as regards solids) without the need to re-condition the solids contaminated water immediately through the chlorination plant.
My 3rd thought is that my 2nd thought will require a very very large reservoir of ‘salted’ feed-water to keep the horse walker supplied through a chlorination unit without having to rely on immediate recirculation/filtration/re-chlorination of contaminated bath water.
Am I getting a little bit closer to understanding your problem/objective ??
