- Filtration of electroplating fluid in conventional electroplating industry
- Pre-filter of DI & RO water filtration system for industry
- Filtration of low viscosity fluids of chemical
- Filtration of water for manufacturing processes & recycled water
Approximate Life of Iron/Manganese Filter Cartridge:
Filter life depends on the contamination level (iron equivalent) and amount of water consumed on a daily basis. You can use the following chart to estimate how long a filter will last in your case.
"Iron Equivalent" is calculated as follows: (Iron level) + (2 x Manganese level) + (3 x Hydrogen sulfide level)
If you are not sure about your Hydrogen sulfide level (it is hard to accurately test for) and you have a noticeable rotten egg odor, assume a Hydrogen sulfide level of 0.5 ppm. If the rotten egg odor is severe, assume a level of 1.0 ppm.
Example: Test results are 0.8 ppm iron, 0.2 ppm manganese, and you have a rotten egg smell in your water.
Iron Equivalent = (0.8) + ( 2 x 0.2) + (3 x 0.5) = 2.7
NOTE: Some water supplies contain tannins with the iron, if you have only tannins without iron in your water supply, please let us know so we can include a different media filter type.
Manganese Sand is an efficient and economical media for the reduction of dissolved iron and manganese compounds from raw water supplies. It may be used in either gravity fed or pressurized water treatment systems. Manganese Dioxide acts as an insoluble catalyst to enhance the reaction between dissolved oxygen (D.O.) and the iron compounds. In ground waters the dissolved iron is usually in the ferrous bicarbonate state due to the excess of free carbon dioxide and is not filterable. It acting as a catalyst between the oxygen and the soluble iron compounds, enhances the oxidation reaction of Fe++to Fe+++ and produces ferric hydroxide which precipitates and may be easily filtered. The physical characteristics of Manganese Dioxide provide an excellent filter media which is easily cleaned by back washing to remove the precipitant. Manganese Zeolite is not consumed in the iron removal operation and therefore offers a tremendous economic advantage over many other iron removal methods. Other advantages of Manganese Dioxide include; long material life with relatively low attrition loss, a wide temperature performance range and extremely high removal efficiency. Negligible labor costs are involved because Manganese Dioxidedoes not require chemicals for regeneration, only periodic back washing is required.
