Garnet 25% heavier than Pea Metal and performs better than pea metal under high pressure due to its greater density, hardness, and resistance to degradation.
Greensand Plus remove iron, manganese.
Bayoxide E11 will target and remove arsenic.
Anthracite or filter coal, effectively removes fine particles and suspended solids, ensuring clean water.
Silicon Sponge, a lightweight volcanic rock, supports biofiltration and suspended solids organic compounds and bacteria.

Bayoxide E33 (Potable)

Bayoxide E33 is designed with significantly higher absorption capacity, making it an exceptional choice for water treatment applications. One of its key advantages is its increased mechanical stability, which ensures consistent performance even under severe stress.

With Bayoxide E33, you can expect clear water that remains free from discoloration throughout the treatment process. This specialty product not only enhances filtration efficiency but also maintains the aesthetic quality of treated water, making it ideal for various water treatment needs.

SS1 Medium Silicon Sponge

Silicon sponge is a valuable alternative to anthracite, offering superior filtration and purification capabilities in water treatment applications. This porous material, made from silicon, is prized for its high surface area, chemical stability, and exceptional durability, making it effective at removing a wide range of contaminants from water.

The unique porous structure of silicon sponge allows water to flow freely while efficiently trapping and adsorbing impurities, including organic compounds, heavy metals, and microorganisms. It is often utilized in advanced water treatment systems designed to target specific pollutants or in applications requiring high-purity water.

SS1
SS2 Fine Silicon Sponge

Silicon sponge is an alternative to Anthracite. It is a porous material made from silicon that is used in water treatment for filtration and purification. It is valued for its high surface area, chemical stability, and durability, which make it effective at removing contaminants from water. The porous structure of the silicon sponge allows water to flow through while trapping and adsorbing impurities such as organic compounds, heavy metals, and microorganisms. Silicon sponge is often used in advanced water treatment systems, including those designed for the removal of specific pollutants or for applications requiring high-purity water.

SS2
Anthracite

Anthracite is a type of hard, high-carbon coal that is used in water treatment processes, primarily as a filtration media. It is known for its high density and hardness, making it an effective material for removing suspended particles, turbidity, and other impurities from water. Anthracite's angular shape and porous structure allow for efficient filtration, as it provides a large surface area for trapping contaminants. It's commonly used in both industrial and municipal water treatment systems, often in combination with other media like sand and gravel, to enhance water quality and clarity.
