Silica Sand For Water Filtration
Water is essential for survival by all human beings. Natural water sources are not pure; they usually contain dirt, silt, organic impurities, and various harmful microorganisms. Filtration is the very important step through which it makes the water safe for use and consumption; silica sand plays a significant part in this.
We supply carefully washed Libyan sand that meets international filtration standards. It’s a reliable choice for water purification systems worldwide.
Why Use Silica Sand in Water Filtration?
Silica sand is one of the most effective, popular, and natural filter media in water treatment systems. It comes with some distinctive attributes: high hardness, chemical purity, and specific grain size, which turn out to be very suitable for capturing the suspended solids thus purifying water.
When the water passes through the bed of silica sand, tiny particles are physically trapped within the pores and surface of the grains of sand. Therefore, it leads to clearer, safe, and much better water quality.
Uses in water filtration :
Silica sand is used in a wide range of water treatment systems, including:
Benefits of Silica Sand in Filtration
- High Filtration Efficiency : With uniform grain size, silica sand can filter fine and coarse particles from the water effectively.
- Tough and Long Lasting : Silica sand has excellent wear resistance, thereby making it last for long periods before replacement is required.
- Economical Solution : This becomes a viable option since it offers low maintenance and huge efficiencies in filtering.
- Better Flow Distribution : The silica sand adsorbers enhance the flow of water and prolong filtration cycles, so used in conjunction with multimedia filters containing other media such as anthracite and garnet.
