Eliminate "Red Water" & "Black Water" – Ensure Water Purity & System Health

Are you struggling with discolored (yellow/red), metallic-tasting, or odor-emitting water? Excessive iron and manganese aren't just aesthetic issues—they damage equipment, impact product quality, and pose everyday health concerns.

We deliver efficient, cost-effective, and reliable integrated iron and manganese removal systems, engineered specifically for well water, spring water, and challenging surface water sources.
Result: Crystal-clear, safe, and stable water quality.


Core Technology: Catalytic Oxidation Filtration

Our systems utilize specially formulated catalytic oxidation media—functioning as a compact “water transformation unit” that goes beyond mere physical filtration.

How It Works

  1. Catalytic Conversion
    The active catalytic surface instantly oxidizes dissolved ferrous iron (Fe²⁺) and manganous manganese (Mn²⁺) into insoluble ferric iron (Fe³⁺) and manganese dioxide (MnO₂) precipitates.

  2. Deep-Bed Filtration
    Precipitates are effectively trapped within the stratified media bed, ensuring thorough removal.

  3. Self-Sustaining Performance
    Automatic backwashing regenerates the media surface under an oxidative environment, maintaining long-term catalytic activity without chemical-intensive regeneration.


Key Benefits

Benefit Description
Sparkling Water Clarity Eliminates discoloration and turbidity; >99% suspended solids removal.
Improved Taste & Odor Removes metallic taste and hydrogen sulfide (“rotten egg”) smell.
Equipment Protection Prevents scaling in pipes, heaters, boilers, and process equipment—extending service life.
Operational Economy Fully automated PLC control; low backwash water usage (as low as 1% of throughput).
Adaptable Design Handles Fe/Mn concentrations from 1 mg/L to >15 mg/L; customizable for varying flow rates and water sources.

System Highlights

  • High Removal Efficiency – Iron >95%, Manganese >90%; meets/exceeds WHO and national drinking water standards.

  • Smart Automation – PLC-based control with touchscreen HMI; features timed backwash, alert systems, and remote monitoring options.

  • Compact & Efficient – Integrated skid design saves space; optimized hydraulics reduce water and energy consumption.

  • Robust Construction – Carbon steel (epoxy-coated) or stainless steel vessels; corrosion-resistant components.


Typical Applications

  • Municipal & Community Water – Villages, townships, resorts, schools, hotels.

  • Industrial Process Water – Food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, textiles, electronics, boiler feedwater pretreatment.

  • Commercial Services – Swimming pools, car washes, laundromats, spa & wellness facilities.

  • Agricultural Irrigation – Protects drip emitters and sprinklers; improves water uptake efficiency.
