Turbidex granules have high surface area aluminum silicate minerals. In this way, it performs unique suspended solids filtration. With its large porous nature, a filtration degree below 5 microns can be achieved. While traditional sand and multi-layer filters are sufficient for some industries, industries that require nearly pure water require both 5 micron precision filtration and time- and money-saving media.
HYPERFILTRATION EFFICIENCY
With its 3 - 5 micron filtration precision, it provides many advantages such as chemical and filter cartridge consumption in the next steps, the need for membrane cleaning and the prolongation of membrane age.
HIGH FLOW
It allows a filtration rate of 35 m/hour in pressure sand filters. In this way, it significantly reduces the initial investment cost compared to traditional filtration equipment.
PERFECT WATER BRIGHTNESS
Compared to traditional filtration media, it also provides ion exchange, precipitation and flocculation, allowing crystal-clear water to be obtained. It reduces the fuzzy value to < 0.1 NTU.
SAVING ON WATER
The filtration capacity of Turbidex is 1.5 times higher than multimedia and 2.8 times higher than sand filters. In this way, it requires less frequent backwashing due to longer service times, which provides significant water savings.
A REALLY LIGHT MEDIA
It is 50 - 70% lighter than conventional minerals and significantly reduces transportation costs
STOCK CONTROL AND EASIER TO USE
As a single media, it allows easier transportation and stock control compared to multimedia filters. In addition, working with a single media leads to quick and easy solutions in after-sales services.
