What is GreenFil® Activated Filter Media
-
Filter Media made from 100% recycled green & brown glass
-
Activated surface that is fully bio-resistant
-
Provides a 1 micron filtration
-
Developed as a direct replacement for sand and other media in any gravity and pressure filter
-
Provides very attractive life cycle cost
GreenFil – Activation features & benefits
Bio-Resistant Surface / Resistant to bacterial growth
Water molecules and dissolved oxygen
Transformed into free hydroxy radicals on the media surface (catalytic reaction)
No biofouling on media surface
Increased Surface Area / Superior mechanical filtration - large surface for particle adsorption
Adsorption
Absorption
The problem with biofouling
-
Inconsistent and unreliable filtration
-
Biofilm leads to coagulation of sand and the formation of channels in the filter bed
Failure mechanisms of conventional quartz sand
Resulting system risks
-
Turbidity increases
-
Biomass increases
-
Suspended solids & biomass discharges into filtered water
-
Filtration is no longer reliable
Clumps
Channeling
Bacteria
With GreenFil
Reliable filtration
No Biofouling
No clumping
No channeling
