Multi-Sand Filter Media


Product Features DMI-65 is a revolutionary silica sand based filtration media designed for the removal of Iron and Manganese from feedwaters. The media has been extensively used in many different applications over the world. DMI-65 represents the most advanced catalytic water filtration media currently available with extremely high capabilities of removing both Iron (Fe) and Manganese (Mn) simultaneously through low cost catalytic oxidation and retention of precipitate. DMI-65 will also remove arsenic from a water supply given the correct operational conditions. DMI-65 is one of the few catalytic water filtration media in the world developed to remove iron and manganese that is certified to NSF/ANSI 61 for drinking water applications.

Iron and Manganese
Iron can be removed by many different methods to achieve the “World Drinking Water Quality Standards”. Since the introduction of DMI-65, these methods are regarded as old technology by world standards, expensive to operate in chemical, labour, energy and ongoing maintenance costs.

The DMI-65 has a life span of at least 5 to 8 years before needing to be replaced if the plant is maintained correctly.

Advantages of DMI 65

  • Eliminates Potassium Permanganate. Continuous injection of sodium hypochlorite to low (0.2ppm) residual acts as an activator for the media and provides a residual sanitiser effect..
  • Wide pH range. Stable and satisfactory performance at pH 5.8 to 8.6.
  • High Flow Rates. DMI-65 operates satisfactorily at linear filtration velocities of up to twice that of conventional media, reducing capital costs considerably.
  • Higher Operating Temperatures. Maximum operating temperature of 45°C.
  • Long Life. DMI-65 is not consumed in the catalytic oxidation process,.
  • System Compatibility. Physical properties are similar to that of other comparable systems, allowing a change of media without major hardware modifications.
  • Arsenic Removal. DMI-65 has been shown to remove arsenic associated with iron-containing influent. Ferric chloride is used when treating feedwaters with high arsenic feed levels.

    Product Features
    Granular activated carbon is designed for reduction of tastes, odors and dissolved organic chemicals from municipal and industrial water supplies. Manufacture from selected grades of coconut shell coal to produce a high density, durable granular product capable of withstanding the abrasion and dynamics associated with repeated hydraulic transport, backwashing and mechanical handling.

    One of the most common applications for Coconut Shell-High Activated Carbon (RC-SAC) is the reduction of the undesirable tastes and odors present in many chlorinated water supplies. RC-SAC has been successful for many years in the reduction of free chlorine from water supplies. The end product is clean, fresh water with no objectionable taste or odor characteristics.

    We have for many years provided activated carbon to the OEM and replacement market as a pre-treatment for other water purification systems as well as for use in individual treatment equipment for the removal of specific impurities.

    RC-SAC may be used in either domestic or industrial applications using gravity flow or pressurized filter vessels.
    Advantages

  • RC-SAC is an outstanding material for applications requiring taste, odor and dissolved organic chemical removal from water with suspended matter present. This product can be used for filtering waters having a wide range of pH levels.
  • Large surface area results in an exceptionally high capacity and efficiency.
  • Balanced pore structure gives a more efficient adsorption range.
  • RC-SAC is very durable so losses due to attrition are kept to a minimum.
  • RC-SAC has a very high carbon-low ash content.
  • Service rates of 5 gpm/sq. ft. are practical for ordinary taste, odor and chlorine loads.
  • RC-SAC will impart a high “polish” to the filtered water.

    Product Features

     Gravel is a natural ore that has many outstanding advantages over more common granular filter sands and multimedia used for suspended solids reduction. The angularity of the granules and the tapered internal pore spaces allow for reduction of dirt, silt and organic matter suspended in water by bridging, straining and adhesion. The rough surface and internal porosity provide a high surface area for efficient removal of suspended matter. Using deep bed filtration can typically reduce suspended solids down to the 5 micron or less range. Gravel granular structure typically creates less pressure loss through the filter and allows deeper sediment penetration into the bed for higher suspended solids loading and longer filter runs. The deep bed filtration capacity of this product prevents a rapid buildup of head loss and blinding problems that are associated with typical sand filters. Longer filter run times reduce backwash frequency, which provides conservation of water. This ideal combination of particle shape, texture and porosity make this media a good choice where quality water filtration and water conservation are important.

    Substantial savings can be realized when designing a system using Gravel. Its low pressure drop, high service flow rates and high bed loadings combined with lower backwash frequency allow economy in equipment downsizing and reduced pumping requirements. Its low density also saves on handling expense and shipping cost.


    Advantages

  • Gravel is graded specifically for water filtration plants.
  • Filter Sand can be used in municipal, industrial or residential applications
  • The spherical shape of uncrushed gravel promotes good flow and even distribution.
  • Deep bed filtration results in superior water quality and reduces the load on downstream equipment.
  • High sediment removal capacity results in longer filter runs, with a substantial savings in backwash water and time out of service.
  • High service flow rate result in lower equipment costs and a savings in space.
  • Reduced shipping cost due to lighter weight/cu.ft.
  • Replacement of multimedia in existing installations may increase filterReplacement of multimedia in existing installations may increase filter capacity.
  • Gravel is an all-natural, environmentally safety product.
