Filter Anthracite | Anthracite Filter Media

Anthracite filter media which is used in open and closed filter for filtration of brine apart from corrosive liquid is. Its irregular shape is suitable for single and multilayer filtration. Low density in wet condition enable low backwash rate. 

Clarified brine is pumped into anthracite filter for removal of suspended solids. Normally suspended solid load after clarifier is in the range of 10 – 15 ppm. It has been our experience that if clarifier is designed for maximum solids 20 ppm at the outlet then low leakage or suspended solids and longer service run of anthracite filter can be ensured.

Our outputs of the Anthracite Filter come utilized in a variety of filter media in various open and closed filters for water and wastewater treatments from across the spectrum. Our outputs come hydraulically categorized and float above other heavier media such as sand, manganese, greensand etc. Our output has to its name a wonderful regular shape that comes suitable for various single and multi-layer filtration operations and options.
