About Pyrolox:
A mined ore, BERM effectively reduces iron, sulfur and manganese from problem water. A Naturally mined ore, Berm is a mineral form of manganese dioxide which has been used in water treatment for more than 75 years. Pyrolox is a granular filtration media for hydrogen sulfide, iron and manganese reduction. Berm functions as a catalyst, but itself remains relatively unchanged. Berm works on a principle whereby the hydrogen sulfide, iron and manganese are oxidized and trapped on the media while simple backwashing cleans the bed. No chemical regeneration is required, nothing is imparted into the drinking water and Berm has a high capacity for low contaminant concentrations. Berm can be used in conjunction with aeration, chlorination, ozone or other pretreatment methods for difficult applications. Chlorine or other oxidants accelerate the catalytic reaction.
Advantages of Berm Media:
Significantly reduce the following contaminants:
- Effective reduction of iron, sulfur & manganese
- Durable material with long service life & low annual attrition of bed With SS Jacket*** With No Jacket
- No chemical regeneration required, only periodic backwashing
Conditions for Operation:
Significantly reduce the following contaminants:
- pH: 6.5 - 9.0
- Because of its heavy weight, it is very important that Pyrolox filters are backwashed properly to insure adequate bed expansion & continued service life.
