?There are many cases where the ground and river water contain iron and manganese owing to the geological environment. The water containing iron and manganese causes various problems when used as water for all industrial fields, not to speak of drinking water and city water. So the elimination of iron and manganese from the water is essential.
?Mainly for the purpose to treat iron and manganese of high concentration containing in ground water, we have developed the catalytic oxidation filter media for iron and manganese removal, Ferrolite MC/GC series.
?Since the manganese content on the surface of media is much compared with conventional Manganese Sand, they exercise high performance to remove iron and manganese. As to removal of manganese in particular, while the administrative water standard prescribes that manganese content should be 0.05mg/L maximum, far less content can be achieved through these media.
2. Long life.?The treatment method of iron and manganese removal by use of these media is contact-oxidation with chlorine dosing. The particular chemicals coating the surface of media act as catalysts to make the target substance adhere to the surface of media and remove them. It is not adsorption method such as activated carbon but continuously regenerated. So it is not needed to replace the media in short intervals but can be used in long intervals.
3. Easy trial operation?Activation of filter media required before trial operation is easy and can be finished in a short time. It exercises high removal performance from the beginning.
?It can be used for dual media filtration in combination with other filter media such as Anthracite Filter Media, Ceramics, etc. It can realize SS, iron and manganese removal from ground water together in one-filter vessel system according to circumstances, though it should be treated in two-filter vessel system so far.
Ferrolite GC series?Due to the light apparent specific gravity, the bed expansion is well in backwashing and washing water can be reduced. It results good use of water.
