ANTHRACITE
TYPICAL USES, PARTICULATE REMOVAL
APPLICATIONS, MEDIUM AND HIGH GRAVITY
FILTRATION SYSTEMS
Anthracite filter media is specifically
selected from deep mining sites
that yield the highest percentage
of carbon. The water filter media
is hydraulically classified to reduce
foreign mineral matter and to lower
ash content. The water filtration
media is then screened and washed
to ensure suitability for water
filtration purposes. Anthracite
characteristically produces reliable
improvements in turbidity removal,
mostly due to better solids holding
capacity. Additionally, low uniformity
coefficient media improves flow
rates.
