Material Overview

• Type & Composition: A durable, hard mineral coal featuring a shiny black appearance and an extremely high carbon concentration exceeding 95%.

• Formation: Created over millions of years through intense pressure and heat acting on organic plant matter.

• Classification: Represents the highest grade on the coal classification scale, requiring the greatest levels of temperature and compression during development.

Performance & Filtration Benefits

• Application: Functions as a clarifying filter medium for both municipal drinking water and industrial water systems, commonly paired with filter sand or green manganese sand.

• Bed Penetration: The unique grain structure enables suspended solids to be trapped deep within the filter bed rather than only on the surface.

• Operational Advantages: Delivers increased flow capacity, lower head loss/pressure drop, and faster, more effective backwashing compared to standard sand filtration.
