It replaces the traditional sand media applied in all filters. It is produced from a specific type of 100% recycled glass to achieve optimum particle size and shape. Its slippery surface attracts small particles 300 times more than sand thanks to its electrostatic negative charge (zeta potential). It also has a permanent redox potential metal oxide catalysts that self-sterilize the glass mineral. In this way, it helps to separate metal oxides and other target elements from water 4 times more than sand. It has a longer life than sand because it does not contain bacteria and organic waste on its surface.
