Glass Mineral

Iron manganese mineral is a substance used to treat dissolved iron and manganese ions in water. These minerals are in the form of manganedioxide (MnO2) and have a catalytic effect. That is, they oxidize iron and manganese ions in water, allowing them to precipitate and be retained in the filter.

Iron and manganese are elements found naturally in the earth's crust. However, the concentration of these elements may be high in some water sources. This can cause deterioration in the color and odor of the water, blockages in pipes and plumbing, and conditions that can harm human health.

Iron manganese minerals are used to purify water in such cases. These minerals are widely used in domestic and industrial water treatment systems.

Description

The working principle of iron manganese minerals is as follows:

  • The water passes through the filter where the mineral is contained.
  • The manganedioxide in the mineral reacts with iron and manganese ions in the water.
  • As a result of this reaction, iron and manganese ions are oxidized and become insoluble in water.
  • Oxidized iron and manganese are retained in the filter.

Iron manganese minerals are produced in different sizes and shapes according to the iron and manganese concentration in the water. These minerals are regularly backwashed to remove iron and manganese deposits accumulated in the filter.

Iron manganese minerals are an effective and reliable method of water purification. These minerals improve the color, smell and taste of water, prevent clogging in pipes and plumbing, and help protect human health.
