AWWA B102-10 Manganese Greensand for Filters (PDF)
SKU: STB_0071989-PDF
This standard describes manganese greensand used in pressure and gravity filters to remove dissolved iron, manganese, radium, arsenic, and hydrogen sulfide.
Description
It discusses the placement, handling, preparation, and regeneration of manganese greensand media. Although manganese greensand filters frequently employ gravel and anthracite filter materials, they have been omitted from this standard with reference to the document ANSI/AWWA B100, Standard for Granular Filter Material, which covers these materials in detail. Major revisions made to the standard in this edition include the following: a section on proper storage of materials was added in the foreword (Sec. II.A); and, modifications were made to conform to AWWA standard style and wording.
