Iron and Manganese Removal Systems

Submitted by gyakornok on 21 August 2025

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The metal ion content of natural waters can cause deposits, turbidity, increased corrosiveness and, in the case of drinking water, a metallic taste during water consumption. For the removal of iron and manganese, we recommend the use of HF-AMF type pressure equipment with manganese hydroxide-based filling, which keeps the iron content of the treated water below 0.2-0.3 mg/l and the manganese content below 0.1 mg/l. The equipment's filling first catalytically oxidizes the iron and manganese ions, then filters the resulting precipitate out of the water. The contaminants retained during the process are removed by a countercurrent washing operation initiated by a time program and/or pressure difference, during which disinfection and activation of the filling take place. The equipment is automatic and comes in a standard block or individual valve design. The filter columns are made of polyethylene-lined fiberglass polyester (FRG) or surface-treated carbon steel. In the case of a custom valve design, the equipment is controlled and its operation is displayed by a Unitronics PLC-HMI unit.
