1. A process for cleaning filter material of filters for the mechanical filtration of liquids, especially water, in which the liquid to be cleaned flows from above downwards through a filter vessel filled with filter material, while the filter material laden with soiling substances is successively removed from the filter vessel at its upper end, fed to a washing vessel, cleaned and then fed to the filter again at its lower end, characterized in that a filter material is used which is of lower specific gravity than the liquid, in that the soiled filter material is conveyed, by reason of the pressure difference present between filter vessel and washing vessel, from the filter vessel into the washing vessel and in that the cleaned filter material is conducted back by means of buoyancy forces from the washing vessel arranged beneath the filter vessel, into the filter vessel. |
