PFM Permanent Filtration Media

Aquionics PFM is the new paragon in permanent filtration media. PFM filters finer, reduces water wastage, removes toxic & noxious chemicals, and is highly effective in all domestic, industrial, municipal, aquaculture and commercial aquarium applications. Zeolites are a popular group of minerals that perform important industrial applications, including ion exchange, odour removal, tasks. There are about 45 natural minerals that are recognised as members of the Zeolite group. PFM is a unique member of this group, and has the name Viridescent Clinoptilolite. The high grade mineral has all the cheracteristics necessary to place it as the worlds leading natural filtration medium, and is easily recognized by its unique, natural green colour. PFM is used to filter & purify municipal water supplies, industrial & sewerage effluent, biological wetlands, commercial aquariums, aquaculture ponds and swimming pools. The unique characteristics of PFM offer a multi-functional and environmentally safe option to remove most contaminants found in water systems. PFM has an open, regular crystalline framework that is physically strong to take the rigours of mechinical filtration. The open framework resembles a microscopic sponge that allow PFM to trap chemicals, such as heavy metals, ammonia, calcium, as well as extreamly fine particles such as colloids.

NEW FILTER INSTALLATION PFM is used as the sole medium. The weight of PFM required is 50% that of filter sand. The level of PFM in the filter is slightly lower than expected. This is tocater for the 35% expansion in the filter ned on backwashing. EXISTING FILTER INSTALLATIONS Remove 50% of the filter sand from the filter and replace with PFM. The weight of PFM required is 50% of the sand weight removed from the filter. FRESH WATER AQUACULTURE PFM has a high selectivity for ammonia, and will reduce the ammonia content in a recirculating system by more than 95%. The PFM will require regular rgeneration, and the frequency depends on the bio-load. SWERAGE & WASTEWATER PFM will significantly improve the capacity, efficiency and discharge quality of activated sludge sewerage treatment plants. PFM will also improve nitrification and reduce odours to acceptable levels. The PFM will boost bacterial flocs by increasing bacterial action per unit volume, due to the extreamly large surface area. PFM will remove heavy metals which can be recovered by regeneration.
