Wastewater filter system

A wastewater filter system comprising:

• a. a case including an open bottom end for receiving an inflow of sewage into said filter and an outlet positioned above said open bottom end for allowing filtered effluent to exit said filter;
• and
• b. a plurality of stackable filter units sized to fit within said casing and having a first end and a second end, each of the filter units having:
• i. a first planar surface wherein the first planar surface comprises a smooth inclined surface and a closed center portion and ii. a second planar surface having a filtering wall extending downwardly therefrom toward said open bottom end to an edge, wherein the second planar surface is designed for stacking alignment with the first planar surface of a second filter unit and wherein the edge forms a filter aperture with the first planar surface of the second filter unit,
• c. at least one channel opening for receiving unfiltered wastewater effluent, said at least one channel opening defined adjacent said filtering wall;
• d. at least one channel opening for receiving filtered wastewater effluent;
• e. connecting elements to releasibly connect the stackable filter units together;
• and
• f. at least one channel opening for receiving a handle unit;
• wherein the plurality of stackable filter units are vertically oriented so that for each of the filter units the first planar surface is a top surface that is closer to said outlet than said second planar surface and the second planar surface is a bottom surface that is positioned below the top surface and closer to said open bottom end than said first planar surface.
