Garnet is a high hardness, high density granular filter media. It can be used extremely effectively as the lower strata in a dual media filter bed. Its high specific gravity as well as its acid endurance and abrasive resistance makes garnet ideal for filtration.

Due to its large proportion of iron-aluminum-garnet, it does not contain organic matter and soluble acids and therefore has advantages in filtering urban water. It can compete with silica sand, ilmenite, magnetite, etc. from cost, durability and effectiveness.

The garnet used for single-media filters in swimming pools uses one or two different types of garnets; garnets can also be used in multi-media industrial filtration systems. The so-called multi-media namely garnet – quartz, garnet – sand – anthracite and so on. The particle size of these materials is controlled so that they are differentiated according to the specific natural gravity, forming a number of horizontal layers that are coarsely tapered from bottom to top. This medium removes floc from the water.

Advantages of the Garnet filter media

1.Garnet Has good acid resistance and wear resistance;
2.Garnet has good chemical stability;
3.Garnet filter media is Ideal supporting layer;
4.Better filtering velocity, adsorption and filtering efficiency;
5.High mechanical strength and long service life;
6.High melting point and large proportion.
