Anthracite Filter Media

Epochemmie’s anthracite filter media is selected naturally
hard clean anthracite, It is an excellent filtration medium for gravity and pressure filters, for treatment of hard and soft water, sewage, oil and acid/alkali liquids. The hardness of carbocite ensures minimum wastage by attrition in service.
It contains 80% of pure carbon. The irregular shape of the particles offers a larger surface area per unit of volume and larger spaces between particles which enable high filtration rates with low head losses to be obtained. The greater surface area of carbocite promotes the efficient removal of algae, turbidity and bacteria.

Our product is being produced under the Japanese standard JWWA 103 and has the approval for the use with drinking water.
*The a/m product can completely accord with standard of AWWA, American water
Works Association.

The advantages of using carbocite become expressed as follows:
*faster filtration         *longer filter runs        *low loss of head
*economic use of space     *easy to handle            *savings in wash water
*big capital savings       *long life                 *available in several sizes
