Turbidex
In addition to its many advantages, Turbidex mineral is generally used as a filter media for suspended solids removal. Its angular structure and irregular surface offers a high filtration area and thus has a filtration sensitivity up to 20-40 microns. The backwash requirement is low, thus providing long filtration times. Thanks to its large and irregular surface, the formation of the filter cake, which is formed in the top layer of classical filter sand, is prevented and longer filtration times are obtained. Despite the lack of iron removal mineral, oxidized iron in raw water can be kept due to the structure of Turbidex. The pre-oxidation process can be roughly aeration, ozonation or chlorination.
