DMI-65 is a specialized catalytic filtration media widely used in water treatment systems. It is designed primarily for removing iron, manganese, and other heavy metals from water sources. The media is impregnated with a manganese dioxide catalyst by infusion that facilitates the oxidation of soluble iron and manganese into insoluble forms, which can then be filtered out.
Key Features of DMI-65:
- Iron and Manganese Removal:
- Oxidizes soluble iron (Fe2+) and manganese (Mn2+) into insoluble particles for easy filtration.
- Long Lifespan:
- Durable and long-lasting media when properly maintained.
- Disinfectant Compatible:
- Works effectively with chlorine or other oxidants for continuous regeneration.
- High Flow Rates:
- Suitable for applications requiring large volumes of water treatment.
- NSF/ANSI 61 Certified:
- Safe for drinking water applications.
Applications:
- Municipal Water Treatment: Removal of iron and manganese from public water supplies.
- Industrial Applications: Used in cooling towers, food and beverage production, and other industrial processes.
- Irrigation Systems: Prevents clogging in drip and sprinkler systems by removing heavy metals.
- Residential Use: Suitable for private water supplies with high iron and manganese levels.
Maintenance:
- Regular backwashing is essential to remove the trapped insoluble particles.
- Periodic regeneration with an oxidant, such as chlorine, ensures the media retains its catalytic properties.
