1. A filtration system for filtering fluid flowing therethrough comprising: a frame;a main trough substantially horizontally mounted on said frame, and having a path along which the fluid flows;a screen disposed in said substantially horizontally mounted trough across the path of the fluid;a traversing sprayer disposed adjacent the screen and movable along a length of the screen; anda movement mechanism so constructed and arranged so as to linearly move said traversing sprayer along the length of said screen;wherein the traversing sprayer includes a U-shaped manifold having a plurality of upstream spray nozzles mounted on an upper leg disposed on one side of the screen positioned to spray in a direction substantially towards the screen and a plurality of downstream spray nozzles mounted on a lower leg disposed on the other side of the screen positioned to spray in a direction substantially towards the screen. 2. The system according to claim 1, further comprising a fluid holding tank disposed below the main trough and below the screen for holding the fluid that has passed through the screen. 3. The system according to claim 2, further comprising a recirculation pump to supply fluid from the fluid holding tank to the spray nozzles. 4. The system according to claim 1, wherein said movement mechanism comprises a track disposed along the main trough and along which the traversing sprayer moves. 5. The system according to claim 1, further comprising a pump that supplies fluid to the upstream spray nozzles and the downstream spray nozzles, and a flexible hose connecting the pump to the upstream spray nozzles and to the downstream spray nozzles. 6. The system according to claim 1, wherein the screen is disposed at an angle relative to the frame. 7. The system according to claim 1, wherein the upstream spray nozzles are positioned to spray in a direction slightly angled relative to the screen. 8. The system according to claim 1, wherein the screen is disposed at an angle relative to the main trough. 9. The system according to claim 1, further comprising a buffer tank disposed adjacent to and in fluid communication with the main trough at a position upstream of the screen, whereby fluid flows from the buffer tank into the main trough to be filtered. 10. The system according to claim 9, wherein the traversing sprayer is movable toward and away from the buffer tank. 11. The system according to claim 9, wherein the buffer tank includes an inlet through which fluid is supply to the tank, and an outlet disposed above the inlet and open to the main trough. 12. The system according to claim 9, further comprising a debris collector disposed on a side of the main trough opposite to the buffer tank. 13. The system according to claim 12, wherein the upstream spray nozzles are angled toward the debris collector. 14. The system according to claim 1, wherein each spray nozzle of the traversing sprayer is capable of spraying at least 7 gallons of fluid per minute. 15. The system according to claim 1, wherein the upstream spray nozzles and the downstream spray nozzles are each arranged in a plurality of rows extending in a direction traverse to a direction along which the traversing sprayer is movable. 16. The system according to claim 1, wherein a length of the trough along which the traversing sprayer is movable is at least approximately 10 feet. 17. The system according to claim 1, wherein a width of the trough is at least approximately 3 feet. 18. The system according to claim 1, wherein said movement mechanism comprises a traversing motor to move said traversing sprayer.
