IRON MANGANESE FILTER SYSTEMS

Water containing iron and manganese can often cause undesirable color, odor and taste in drinking water or potable water systems. A commonly used method to deal with such situations is the use of special filter systems to remove iron and manganese from water.Iron-manganese filter systems, designed to remove iron and manganese from water, focus on removing iron and manganese in water through oxidation and filtration. These systems generally involve a two-step process: Oxidation Phase: Water entering the system is treated with an oxidation agent that converts iron and manganese into an oxidized form that can be removed from water. This stage allows iron and manganese to be filtered out more easily. Filtration Stage: Oxidized iron and manganese are passed through a filter bed, usually containing special filter material. This filter material retains iron and manganese and allows the passage of clean water.The design and sizing of these systems varies depending on the water's iron and manganese concentration, water flow rate, and usage demands. Some systems are manually operated, while others have automatic controls and constantly monitor and adjust the filtration process.
