Greensand Plus™
Manufacturer: Inversand Company
Categories: Iron / Manganese Removal, Hydrogen Sulfide
Improved Replacement for Manganese Greensand
Greensand Plus™ is an improved version of manganese greensand. It is composed of a manganese dioxide coating applied to silica sand. It is effective greater pressure differentials than traditional manganese greensand thereby allowing for longer service cycles and intervals between backwashes.
Like conventional manganese greensand, Greensand Plus requires periodic or continuous regeneration with potassium permanganate or other strong oxidizer such as chlorine.
- Proven technology
- Concurrent treatment of iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg odor)
- Effective over wide pH range
- ANSI/NSF 61 validated (by WQA)
- High tolerance of oxidizers such as chlorine
