Filtralite® is an effective carrier for biofilm in fixed bed water treatment systems, where it not only supports microbial growth but also acts as a mechanical filter for suspended particles.

​

Filtralite® Clean offers several advantages:

​

• Ample surface area for biofilm growth along with a high void ratio

• A multitude of large pores

• Efficient volumetric processes

• Lighter density compared to traditional media

• Exceptional resistance to wear and tear

​

Moreover, Filtralite® Clean is well-suited for tertiary filtration, offering benefits such as:

​

• Reduced initial head loss

• Slower accumulation of head loss

• Enhanced capacity for particle storage

• Lower rates of backwashing

• Decreased operational costs

​

Filtralite® filters typically operate within a range of 15 m/h to 20 m/h.
