Product Description

Birm - Iron and Manganese Removal Media 1CuFt

Please See Birm Data Sheet under Resources below for full details

The Birm - Iron and Manganese Removal Media 1CuFt is an efficient and economical water treatment media. Manufactured and engineered to combat dissolved iron and manganese compounds, Birm acts as a catalyst, between dissolved oxygen and soluble iron compounds and enhances the oxidation reaction causing precipitation of the compounds.  This reaction allows the physical filtration of the compounds by the Birm Media.  Birm media is easily cleaned by backwashing to remove the precipitated compounds out of the media bed, thus extending media life and ensuring the efficiency of compound extraction is maintained throughout.

Key Features and Advantages

  •  Efficient Removal of Iron and Manganese: Facilitates oxidation, converting impurities into easily filterable precipitates.
  •  Chemical-Free Filtration: Under proper conditions, Birm operates without chemical regenerants or additives, ensuring an environmentally safe process.
  •  Low Maintenance Cost: Requires only periodic backwashing,..
  •  Durability in Performance: Long life and Efficiency Levels
  •  Lightweight and Easy Handling: Bulk density of 36–38 lbs./cu. ft. simplifies installation and maintenance.
  •  Wide Temperature Range: Performs efficiently between 35–100°F.
