Water Filtration Garnet Sand

Water Filtration Garnet sand is used as the bottom layer in multi-media filters to improve water and wastewater filtration down to 10-20 microns, increase filter run times, and decrease backwashing frequency. Garnet sand's high specific gravity allows for maintaining a large-to-small particle grading within the filter, which provides superior performance. Garnet abrasive sand is also used for Sand / Shot blasting machine operations. Garnet is an ideal water filter media. Abrasive garnet is a chemically inert and non-metallic mineral, which is commonly found in the natural environment. Garnet sand is well known for its hardness and durability. It has a high specific gravity as well as its chemical and abrasive resistance makes garnet an ideal filter media

Solids penetrate the entire bed, creating increased storage and longer filter runs.
Low dust emissions won’t pollute the atmosphere.
It doesn’t contaminate the sea bed or disturb marine wildlife when used offshore.

Advantages Water Filtration

Water filtration garnet sand High specific gravity allows unique filter designs. In combination with other filter media both higher flow rates, higher loadings, and better filtration can be achieved.
High hardness reduces attrition and provides for years of reliable service.
An excellent support bed for other high-density media.
