Details
Applications
- Water treatment: High-performance filter material for single-layer, multi-layer and multi-media filtration in water treatment systems.
- Water recovery: Ideal for water recovery systems that require efficient filtration.
Quality characteristics
- Optimal filter performance: Precise screening curves (gradation) enable application-specific design of the filter bed.
- Mechanical and chemical stability: High breaking strength and abrasion resistance guarantee a long service life.
- Efficient filtration processes: Optimal hydraulic conditions lead to effective filtration processes.
- Self-cleaning and fluidisation: Excellent self-cleaning and fluidisation properties during backwashing.
- Energy and water savings: Significant savings thanks to shorter backwashing times and reduced use of disinfectants.

The smooth surface of SiLibeads® WATER Glass Beads prevents dirt and germs from sticking, which means you don’t need to use as many chemical disinfectants. The maintenance intervals for the filters are also extended, reducing operating costs. With a significantly higher dirt holding capacity and fewer backwashing cycles, they offer additional savings in energy and water.
