Media Filtration

What is Media Filtration?

Media filtration is a proven water treatment process that uses multiple layers of natural and engineered materials to remove suspended solids, turbidity, and contaminants. By combining different media with varying densities and particle sizes, these filters deliver superior performance compared to single-media systems, ensuring cleaner, safer, and more reliable water quality.

Key Filtration Media

  • Sand – Acts as the primary filtration layer, capturing fine particles and reducing turbidity for clear water.
  • Gravel – Provides structural support for finer media above, ensuring even water flow and preventing clogging.
  • Zeolite – A natural mineral with high ion-exchange capacity, effective in removing ammonia, heavy metals, and other impurities.
  • Anthracite – A durable, carbon-rich coal that removes larger suspended solids, extending filter run times and efficiency.
  • Activated Carbon – Highly porous material that adsorbs organic compounds, chlorine, odors, and improves taste, making water safe and pleasant to use.

Benefits of Media Filtration

  • Enhanced removal of suspended solids, turbidity, and organic contaminants
  • Longer filter life with reduced backwashing frequency
  • Improved water clarity, taste, and odor control
  • Versatile applications in industrial, municipal, and commercial water treatment
  • Eco-friendly solution using natural and recyclable filtration materials

Media filtration systems combine the strengths of sand, gravel, zeolite, anthracite, and activated carbon to deliver high-performance water treatment. With their layered design, these filters provide reliable, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions for industries and communities seeking superior water quality.
