Manganese Greensand ( MGS ) is capable of removing high amounts iron and manganese, and low amounts of hydrogen sulfide.
The pH level of your water source must be between 6.2 and 8.5 or it will not work
It must be regenerated with potassium permanganate and backwashed often to prevent clogging.
Also, the amount required depends on your level of iron or hydrogen sulfide.
If you are not sure, please ask us.
We have other ways to treat these water problems.
Manganese Greensand is formulated
from a glauconite greensand which is
capable of reducing iron, manganese and
hydrogen sulfide from water through
oxidation and filtration. Soluble iron and
manganese are oxidized and precipitated
by contact with higher oxides of manganese
on the greensand granules. The
hydrogen sulfide is reduced by oxidation
to an insoluble sulfur precipitate.
Precipitates are then filtered and removed
by backwashing. When the oxidizing
capacity power of the Manganese
Greensand bed is exhausted, the bed has
to be regenerated with a weak potassium
permanganate (KMnO4) solution thus
restoring the oxdizing capacity of the
bed. 1� to 2 ounces of potassium
permanganate, in solution, per cubic foot
of Manganese Greensand is considered
sufficient for normal regneration. It is
required to vigorously backwash and
regenerate the bed when it is placed in
service and before its oxidation capacity
is totally exhausted. Operating the bed
after oxidation capacity is exhausted will
reduce its service life and may cause staining.
