Water treatment quartz sand uses natural high-quality quartz ore as raw material, and undergoes a series of production processes such as crushing, stone rolling, water washing and screening, drying and screening.
It has the advantages of fast filtration speed, no mixed layers, good filtration effect, stable effluent water quality, no clogging and no agglomeration.
Application :
Quartz sand is widely used in various water treatment systems due to its high mechanical strength, chemical stability, uniform particle size, and excellent backwashing performance.
Recommended Particle Size Range :
The particle size of quartz sand should be selected according to the filtration system and treatment process. Common specifications include:
Size Range (mm) | Application |
0.5 – 1.0 mm | Fine filtration layers, RO pretreatment, landscape water circulation |
1.0 – 2.0 mm | Industrial and domestic wastewater filtration |
2.0 – 4.0 mm | Municipal water treatment, heavy-load filters, primary filtration |
4.0 – 8.0 mm | Support layer at the bottom of filters, enhances backwashing effect |
Recommended Filter Media Combinations?
Anthracite / Activated Carbon / Ceramsite, Zeolite, Bio-carriers
How long is the service life of quartz sand filter media?
Under normal conditions, quartz sand can last 2 to 3 years, depending on water quality, backwashing frequency, and system design.
Is quartz sand suitable for drinking water treatment?
Yes. Our quartz sand meets drinking water grade standards and is safe for use in municipal water supply and purification systems.
