Non-ProZ.com Apr 7, 2005:
Thanks all for your suggestions. I think I've found the right term myself - it's Coarse Bar Screening (to remove large debris),as opposed to fine screening (for smaller particles, grit and sand removal). Jane, how about "anaerobic sludge digesters" and "trickle filters" :\
