Three Methods for Removing
Iron, Sulphur or Manganese from Your Drinking Water
Birm is an efficient
and economical method of removing dissolved iron and manganese
compounds from raw water supplies. The physical characteristics
of Birm provide an excellent filter media which is easily
cleaned by backwashing to remove the precipitant. Birm is
not consumed by iron removal and therefore offers a tremendous
economic advantage over many other iron removal methods. Birm
is not meant for removal of hydrogen sulfide or
that "rotten
egg" odor. A manganese greensand filter,
or The Terminator air injection system is more suited for that
task.
Manganese
Greensand is formulated
from a glauconite greensand which is capable of removing
iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide from water through oxidation
and filtration. Manganese and soluble iron are oxidized and
precipitated by contact with higher oxides of manganese on
the greensand granules. The hydrogen sulfied is eliminated
by oxidation to sulfate and an insoluble precipitate. When
the manganese greensand bed is saturated, it is regenerated
with a weak potassium permanganate solution which is rinsed
down the drain. The potassium permanganate is available locally
at nearly all hardware and home improvement stores.
Terminator
Water Treatment Systems Eliminate
iron, sulphur and turbidity without the use of expensive
chemicals. The Terminator can correct rusty water stains
and rotten egg odors through its filtration system. Periodic
backwashing is all that is required to keep The Terminator
working at peak performance. Terminator systems are not
recommended for water systems using a jet pump.
Iron filters using Birm Media utilize dissolved
oxygen in the water to help oxidize iron so
the birm can remove more efficiently. Come
with 5600 or 2510 Fleck automatic backwash
valve. 1 to 1.5 cubic foot systems have 5600
valve and 2.0 to 2.5 cubic foot systems have
2510 Fleck valve. Changing the Birm media out
on an average of every 7 years a cost of $125.00
for 1.5 cubic feet.
* Note this product is not available to CA residents due to California regulations on the Birm, please contact Quality Water Treatment Inc for a different system.
Advantages:
No chemicals to purchase for
maintenance. Regeneration not
required.
Iron removal efficiency is extremely
high.
Negligible labor cost: only periodicbackwashing
required.
Durable material with a long life
and wide temperature range.
Manganese green sand filters
pull iron and sulfur from water.
Green sand
media requires a chemical called potassium
permanganate.
Permanganate coates over the
green sand every time it backwashes.
Permanganate
is a strong oxidizer to iron and sulfur. As
the water runs thru the green sand the permanganate
oxidized the iron and sulfur so the green sand
can remove it.
Advantages:
Iron reduction over wide pH range
Effective reduction of hydrogen sulfide
in addition to iron and/or manganese
Eliminate iron, sulphur and
turbidity without the use of expensive chemicals
with The Terminator. The Terminator can correct
rusty water stains and rotten egg odors through
its filtration system. Periodic backwashing
is all that is required to keep The Terminator
working at peak performance. Terminator systems
are not recommended for water systems using
a jet pump.
