It seems obvious, the number of problems associated with traditional sand filters can lead to inefficiency and overall headache within your process.

As an example, when oil or sticky solids (such as metal hydroxides) are introduced into the filter, it will cause portions of the sand bed to become clogged and very difficult to clean.

This results in an extended backwash cycle, increased treatment and disposal costs, and possibly water that does not meet clarity requirements.

And—even more frustrating—your sand filter bed needs to be replaced every few years to end these concerns.

Respectfully, replacement technology for sand filters provides a solution you can count on for your operation.

Walnut shell filters promise to help your company meet its goals by achieving lower backwash volumes and eliminating the cost of replacing the sand filter bed.

Finding the right replacement technology for sand filters can result in many benefits to your operation.
