A food processing water filtration apparatus includes a rotatable drum, a source of liquid, a blade to remove solids from the drum, a drain, and a rotational drive. The system has one or more of a plurality of flights affixed to the drum, a source of mixing gas connected to the source of liquid, a source of cleaning gas connected to nozzles disposed inside the drum, and a trunnion support for an end of the drum. The drum is cylindrical and at least partially comprised of a screen. The source of liquid directs liquid towards the screen and into the drum. The drain collects at least a second portion of the liquid that passes through the screen and out of the drum. The outlet is at one or both ends of the drum. The rotational drive is connected to an end(s) of the drum, and rotates the drum.
