SiLibeads® filtration media offers numerous advantages compared to traditional sand filter media.
Due to its characteristics in terms of
- its specific shape and outstanding surface quality,
- the hydraulic and hygienic features given by the filter bed and
- its fluidization and self-cleaning behavior during back wash
Dynamic Deep Bed Filtration
The main features and advantages at a glance:
- Extended running time between back wash cycles
- Less pressure drop and significantly increased dirt-load-capacity
- Reduced turbidity and SDI protects the downstream equipment (membranes, adsorbents)
- Precise and narrow gradations for an applied filter bed design
- Dust free filter filling
- No pump cleaning after installation necessary, no risk off diffusor clogging
- Highly effective filtering process due to optimal hydraulic conditions
- High breaking strength and abrasion resistance for mechanical and chemical stability
- Highly resistant against disinfection & sterilization agents and regenerants
- Superior self-cleaning and fluidization-properties during backwash
- Significant reduction of the need of water and energy due to reduced backwash duration
- Significantly less biofilms
- Reduction of chemical agents and extended service intervals
- Almost unlimited durability
Since the SiLibeads® filtration media were introduced into the field of water filtration and water recovery, they have proven to be sustainable in various industries.
