S.No Filter Media Typical Size / Mesh Purpose / Application Notes
1 Gravel / Pebbles 2–4 mm, 4–8 mm, 8–12 mm, 12–20 mm Support layer in sand & multimedia filters; ensures uniform flow & prevents media washout. Base layer
2 Quartz Sand (Silica) 0.5–1 mm, 1–2 mm, 2–4 mm Primary filtration for turbidity & suspended solids removal in pressure & gravity sand filters. Most common
3 Activated Carbon (PAC / GAC) GAC: 4×8, 8×16 mesh • PAC: powder (mg/L dosing) Adsorption of organics, colour, odour, chlorine and trace contaminants; final polishing. Polishing media
4 Anthracite Coal 0.6–1.6 mm (effective size) Used in multimedia filters above sand — improves turbidity removal & bed runability. Higher turbidity
5 Garnet 0.3–0.6 mm High-density bottom layer in multimedia filters — supports graded bed and polishes fine solids. Bottom layer
6 MnO₂ (Manganese Dioxide) Media Media bed granular; typical specifications per supplier Oxidation & removal of Fe & Mn in groundwater treatment (followed by filtration). Iron removal
7 Greensand / Greensand Plus Standard greensand grain sizes (supplier specific) Removal of iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide (with regeneration using potassium permanganate). Regenerable
8 BIRM Proprietary granular media Iron removal without chemical dosing (works under specific pH & DO conditions). Low chem option
9 PSF / ACF Media Set Customized (sand + anthracite + GAC) Complete refill kits for Pressure Sand Filters (PSF) and Activated Carbon Filters (ACF). Refill kit
10 Aragonite / Calcite Granular Neutralizes acidic water (pH correction), used in post-treatment to raise pH and reduce corrosion. pH correction
11 KDF Media Granular blocks / media beds Removes heavy metals (lead, mercury), chlorine reduction and provides bacteriostatic action. Membrane pre-treatment
12 MBBR Bio Media (Plastic Carriers) 16 mm / 22 mm / 25 mm (typical) High-surface-area carriers for MBBR reactors — support biofilm growth for BOD/COD & nitrification. Bio media
13 Tube Settler Media (V-Shaped / Hexa) 50 mm / 60 mm modules Improve settling efficiency in clarifiers — reduces footprint & increases throughput. Clarifier upgrade
14 Ion Exchange Resin — Cation (Softener) Gel & Macroporous beads (0.3–1.2 mm) Removes Ca²⁺ & Mg²⁺ (hardness) in water softening plants. Softener
15 Ion Exchange Resin — Anion Strong / Weak base resins (0.3–1.2 mm) Removes alkalinity, silica, nitrate, fluoride and specific anions as required. Dealkalization / Demineralization
16 UF / RO Cleaning Chemicals - Acidic & alkaline cleaning agents, anti-scaling cleaners & surfactants for membrane CIP (as per membrane type). Membrane care
17 Bioballs / Aquaculture Media 25–32 mm Used in aeration tanks, trickling filters and aquaculture for supporting biomass & biological treatment. Bio support
18 Softener Salt (NaCl) Crystals / Briquettes for regeneration Regeneration chemical for cation-exchange softeners (industrial & domestic packs). Regeneration

* If a size is not specified above, typical supplier specifications are used. For project-specific recommendations (particle size distribution, effective size, uniformity coefficient), share the filter vessel details and duty flow — we will recommend the correct grading and quantity.
