Sand

Filtration sand is a granular material used in water and wastewater treatment systems to remove fine particles, sediments and impurities.
This natural filter medium is highly effective in purifying water, guaranteeing efficient filtration and clean, safe water for various industrial and environmental applications.

How does sand work in water treatment?

Sand acts as a physical filter medium in filtration systems, where water is passed through layers of sand. During this process, suspended particles and sediments are captured between the grains of sand, resulting in clearer, more purified water. This method is highly efficient at removing suspended solids, turbidity and some organic impurities.

Applications of sand for filtration

Drinking water treatment

Sand is widely used in drinking water treatment systems to remove sediment and improve the quality of water intended for human consumption. Its effective filtration capacity guarantees clean and safe water.

Treatment of industrial effluents

Essential for purifying industrial effluents, helping to remove suspended solids and reduce the organic load before disposal or reuse. Sand is used in primary and secondary treatment processes to ensure that the treated water meets environmental standards.

Filtration in water treatment plants

Used in municipal and industrial water treatment plants, sand removes impurities and unwanted particles, guaranteeing high-quality water for various applications.

Sand is an essential component for water and wastewater treatment, offering efficiency and versatility in the removal of particles and sediments.
We offer high quality sand, selected and processed to ensure maximum efficiency in removing contaminants.
