Filter Media – BIRM
Iron
and Manganese removal
Supplied
in 25Kg bags
What it
is and how it works
Birm is
a black granular filter material used for removal of iron and/or manganese
from water in pressure or gravity systems.
It
contains an active insoluble catalyst to precipitate iron and/or
manganese. Because the presence of iron is most common, iron removal is
the usual application for Birm. Under suitable conditions, the iron and
dissolved oxygen in water react on contact with the Birm filter bed and,
as a result, the iron is precipitated in the form of hydroxide. This is a
flocculent material which is filtered out in the bed of Birm. Periodic
backwashing flushes out the accumulated iron and the Birm is again ready
to perform its function. Birm is not consumed in the iron removal
operation.
Advantages
·
No chemicals to
purchase for maintenance. Regeneration not required.
·
Iron removal
efficiency is extremely high.
·
Negligible labour
cost. Only periodic backwashing required once in a week.
·
Durable material with
a long life. It lasts 4-7 Years according to use.
·
Wide temperature range
application.
Conditions necessary for the use of Birm
Iron Removal
·
No hydrogen sulphide
present.
·
Organic matter not to
exceed 4-5 ppm as indicated by the oxygen consumed value.
·
Oil must not be
present.
·
A dissolved oxygen
content of at least 15% of the iron. (Example Iron = 10ppm. Dissolved
Oxygen = 1.5 ppm or more).
·
A pH of 6.5 or higher.
Note:
The correction of waters having a pH of less than 6.5 can be accomplished
by several methods. Provide Aeration.
Instructions for industrial and municipal installations
·
Bed depth: 30 38
inches.
·
Standard graded gravel
supporting bed depth 14 inches or more.
·
Service flow rate: not
to exceed 4 GPM per square foot.
·
Freeboard space: 35 to
50% of bed depth.
·
Backwash whenever the
pressure loss through the bed increases by 2 to 3 pounds per square inch.
Backwashing is usually complete within 20 to 30 minutes.
Instructions for domestic installations
·
Bed depth: approximately 24 to 30 inches.
·
Standard graded
gravel-supporting bed 8 inches or more.
·
Service flow rate: not
to exceed 5 GPM per square foot.
·
Freeboard space: 35 to
50% of bed depth.
·
Backwashing is
recommended every 7 days to 2 weeks. In treatment of high iron content
waters, backwashing more frequently is desirable.If 8 gallons per minute per
square foot of bed are not available for backwashing fine Birm, an air
wash is recommended. This may be accomplished by drawing air through an
injector into the water for backwashing.
