CTM series iron and manganese removal filter
Purpose
Structure and working principle
Ferrous iron (Fe2+) has relatively strong reducibility. It is easily oxidized by oxidants (such as oxygen, chlorine, potassium permanganate, etc.) to ferric iron (Fe3+). Fe3+ easily undergoes a hydrolysis reaction in water, generating the insoluble compound Fe(OH)3 which precipitates out, thus achieving the purpose of iron removal. The above is the principle of iron removal by aeration.
Iron removal with manganese sand is a commonly used method. The main component of natural manganese sand is manganese dioxide (MnO2), which is a catalyst for the oxidation of ferrous iron to ferric iron. The generated Fe3+ is immediately decomposed by water into flocculent iron hydroxide and precipitates, and the iron is removed. Using aeration for oxygenation combined with manganese sand for iron removal is a commonly used iron removal method.
