Pyrolox Advantage, 1/2 cuft
Pyrolox Advantage 1/2 cu. ft.
Take your water filtration to the next level with Pyrolox Advantage, an advanced filtration media crafted for efficient and reliable contaminant removal. Combining the innovative surface chemistry of synthetic Pyrolox Ultra with the lightweight properties of silicate media, Pyrolox Advantage excels in eliminating impurities like iron, manganese, and arsenic. With faster performance and better efficiency, it’s the perfect solution for clean, high-quality water.
Key Benefits
-
Enhanced Contaminant Removal
Removes iron, manganese, and arsenic effectively, providing fresh and clean water. A pH of 7 is required for iron removal, while a pH of 8 is optimal for manganese removal. -
Fast and Efficient
Performs better than traditional natural ore products, especially at low contaminant concentrations. -
Versatile Applications
Works seamlessly in both catalytic configurations with supplemental oxidants or in systems requiring regeneration. -
Eco-Friendly Maintenance
Regular backwashing and optimal design ensure long-lasting efficiency without excessive replacements.

Advantages
Pyrolox Advantage features superior filtration science to tackle tough water challenges.
-
Optimized for Iron and Manganese Removal
Efficiently removes Fe²⁺ and Mn²⁺ ions, faster and more effectively than traditional media. -
Arsenic Removal Capability
Indirectly removes arsenic by co-precipitating it with iron (requires an Fe : As ratio of 30:1). -
Low Maintenance Needs
Regularly backwashed to maintain performance, with catalytic operation requiring no regeneration. -
Easy Commissioning
Does not need activation, and sodium hypochlorite-based sterilization won't harm the media.
Physical Properties
- Color & Form: Black, sand-like, free-flowing
- Bulk Density: 84 lbs./cu. ft. (1350 kg/m³)
- True Density: 170 lbs./cu. ft. (2700 kg/m³)
- Porosity: 50%
- Mesh Sizes: 16–44 (BS/ISO) or 18–45 (ASTM)
Operating Conditions
To maximize the efficiency of Pyrolox Advantage, adhere to these operating parameters:
- pH Range: 6.5–8.5 (pH 7 for iron removal, pH 8 for manganese removal).
- Freeboard: Maintain 40% of bed depth.
- Recommended Service Flow Rate: 2–12 gpm/ft² (5–30 m³/hr).
- Minimum Bed Depth: 12 inches (300 mm).
- Backwash Flow Rate: 25–50 gpm.
For optimal contaminant reduction, ensure sufficient bed contact time based on flow rate and contaminant concentration.
Maintenance and Use Tips
-
System Requirements
Pyrolox Advantage can be used in both gravity and pressurized systems. Proper oxygen saturation (60%) or an oxidant like hypochlorite is essential for optimal contaminant removal. -
Regular Backwashing
Perform periodic backwashing to maintain efficiency and prevent surface depletion. Ensure 20% bed expansion during backwash. -
Regeneration Guidance
While catalytic use doesn’t require regeneration, sodium hypochlorite can rejuvenate the surface if depleted. Avoid hydrogen peroxide, per BS EN 13752 standards.
By designing your filter system appropriately, you can ensure sustainable, high-performance filtration for iron, manganese, and arsenic.
