Filtration Media Options

Our filtration products can be customized using different filter media to target site-specific pollutants. A combination of media is often recommended to maximize pollutant removal.

 
Perlite
Perlite is naturally occurring puffed volcanic ash. Its porous, multi-cellular structure and rough edges make it effective for removing TSS, oil and grease.
 
Zeolite
Zeolite is a naturally occurring mineral used in a variety of water filtration applications. It is used to remove soluble metals, ammonium, and some organics.
 
CSF Leaf Media
CSF Leaf Media and MetalRx are created from deciduous leaves processed into granular, organic media. CSF is most effective for removing soluble metals, TSS, oil and grease, and neutralizing acid rain. MetalRx, a finer gradation, is used for higher levels of metal removal.
 
GAC
GAC (Granular Activated Carbon) has a micro-porous structure with an extensive surface area to provide high levels of adsorption. It is primarily used to remove oil and grease and organics such as herbicides and pesticides.
