Manganese Sand is a natural filter media made from manganese ore through crushing and grading processes. It is mainly used for iron and manganese removal in groundwater and industrial water treatment.
It is known for high removal efficiency, stable operation, long service life, and low maintenance cost.
Application :
Manganese sand filter media boasts advantages such as high iron and manganese removal efficiency, stable operation, long service life, and low maintenance costs, making it one of the core filter media in traditional groundwater iron and manganese removal processes.
Recommended Particle Size Range :
The particle size of manganese sand should be selected according to the filtration system and treatment process. Common specifications include:
Higher Fe/Mn concentration → Larger particle size
Higher effluent quality requirement → Smaller particle size
High manganese water requires sufficient aeration
Multi-layer filter beds are more stable than single-layer systems
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.
Is aeration required before using manganese sand?
Aeration is recommended for high iron and manganese concentrations.
Is manganese sand suitable for drinking water treatment?
Yes, it is commonly used in municipal and rural drinking water systems.
