GreensandPlus™ is a black filter media used for removing soluble iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, arsenic and radium from groundwater supplies.
The manganese dioxide coated surface of GreensandPlus acts as a catalyst in the oxidation reduction reaction of iron and manganese.
The silica sand core of GreensandPlus allows it to withstand waters that are low in silica, TDS and hardness without breakdown.
GreensandPlus is effective at higher operating temperatures and higher differential pressures than standard manganese greensand. Tolerance to higher differential pressure can provide for longer run times between backwashes and a greater margin of safety.
Systems may be designed using either vertical or horizontal pressure filters, as well as gravity filters.
GreensandPlus is a proven technology for iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, arsenic and radium removal. Unlike other media, there is no need for extensive preconditioning of filter media or lengthy startup periods during which required water quality may not be met.
GreensandPlus is an exact replacement for manganese greensand. It can be used in CO or IR applications and requires no changes in backwash rate or times or chemical feeds.
GreensandPlus has the WQA Gold Seal Certification for compliance with NSF/ANSI 61.
What is Greensand Plus Filtration Media? It is a potent water treatment material, recognised for its capability in eliminating iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulphide from water supplies. Through an oxidation-filtration process, it ensures cleaner, odour-free water. This versatile media is ideal for diverse applications, efficient water purification and enhanced water quality.
Consistent Quality: We provide only high-quality Greensand Plus Filtration Media, ensuring reliable and consistent performance for all applications.
Shipped from Manchester, UK Facility: Sourced and packaged in non-toxic, chemical-resistant containers to ensure safe handling and preserve product quality during transport.
Iron and Manganese Removal
The manganese dioxide coating on the Greensand Plus acts as a catalyst in the oxidation-reduction reactions that convert soluble iron and manganese into insoluble forms, which can then be removed by filtration.
Hydrogen Sulphide, Arsenic and Radium Removal
Effectively removes hydrogen sulfide, can also remove toxic contaminants such as arsenic and radium.
