Katalox-light Iron Filter (for Sulfide, Iron and Manganese reduction)
Katalox-Light is based on Zeosorb
(a high purity natural Aluminosilicate microcrystalline mineral)
with a special process impregnated and then coated with MnO2 that can filter particles as small as
2-3 microns. The coating acts as a protective agent for the impregnated substance. The Katalox-Light granules have an angular shape, rough high micro-porous surface to filter water down to 2-3 microns.
The rough surface and very high porosity provide a huge surface area for efficient reduction of dirt, silt and suspended solids.
Katalox-Light structure features less pressure loss, high service and flow rates and high bed loadings
combined with lower back wash frequency. Katalox-Light System for Iron, Manganese, H2S and other metal removal is a simple system that needs no potassium permanganate (KMnO4) or chlorine.
Katalox-Light filters can be operated at the flow rate of 12 gmp/sq. ft (30 m/h) with a single pressure vessel with and it requires only 5 – 10 minutes backwash time with the flow rate of 5.5 gpm/ sq. ft (13 m/h).
