Quartz sand

Water treatment quartz sand uses natural high-quality quartz ore as raw material, and undergoes a series of production processes such as crushing, stone rolling, water washing and screening, drying and screening.

It has the advantages of fast filtration speed, no mixed layers, good filtration effect, stable effluent water quality, no clogging and no agglomeration.
