Filtercoal AQUAZIT®

AQUAZIT^® is used for open and closed fast filters to clean the water which is contaminated with suspended solids. Numerous advantages are:

• advancement of filter capacity
• less problems with broke through filters
• decreasing clear water consumption
• increasing the filter speed
• extend filter life time

The raw material of AQUAZIT^® (anthracite coal) has by nature all properties which makes it perfect for water filtration:

• high abrasion resistance
• high bulk density
• high batch work velocity without washout loss
• optimum separation of filter layers during backwashing
• good discharge of impurities with a high bulk density
• less curing of particles because of the smooth surface
• no adhesion of deposited iron and manganese compounds
• no release of silica acid to the water
• fully effective between pH 3 and pH 12
• higher capacity of solid particles
• less pressure drop
• less starting filter resistance
• longer filter life time
• higher filter speed
• better filtration quality
• less rear flushing frequency
• less need of filter volume
• saving operational costs
