Anthracite 90 is premium grade anthracite with carbon content +90%. Anthracite filter media promotes higher service flow rates and longer filter runs. Backwash rates are reduced as well. Low uniformity coefficient anthracite filter media extends the life of your filter, typically produces consistent improvements in turbidity removal, due in part to more efficient solids loading. Also, low uniformity coefficient media produces smaller changes in effluent turbidity during periods of peak influent turbidity.
Advantages
High carbon content in top quality anthracite
Low specific gravity reduces backwash rates and energy consumption
Angular particles for low head loss and high filtration capacity
Increased plant capacity by the use of higher filtration rates
