Katalox Light®


Katalox Light® is a new brand of revolutionary advanced filtration media completely developed in Germany. It‘s composition simply makes it outstanding against the contemporary filter media available in water treatment industries, like sand, BIRM, Greensand Plus, Manganese Greensand etc.

Katalox Light® is engineered with unique MnO2 coating technique on ZEOSORB®, providing it light weight, higher filtration surface, more service life and more reliable performance (filtration down to 3 μm) than any other existing granular filter media.

Katalox Light® is used in water treatment systems for residential, commercial, industrial and municipal applications worldwide, for high level filtration, color and odor removal, Iron, Manganese, Hydrogen Sulphide removal, efficient reduction of Arsenic, Zinc, Copper, Lead, Radium, Uranium and other radionuclides and heavy metals.

  • High MnO2 content (10%)

  • Filtration down to less than 3 μm

  • High efficiency removal capacity of Iron, Manganese and Hydrogen sulfide

  • Low media replacement frequency, every 7 to 10 years

  • Certified to NSF/ANSI-61 standard for drinking water applications and meets the ANSI/NSF 372 Lead free compliance.

ADVANCED USE: High concentration coating of MnO2 on the Katalox Light®  surface (10%) is the biggest advantage compared to any similar product available in the market. This makes the oxidation and co-precipitation of contaminants much more effective. For removal of very high concentration of contaminant it‘s recommended to use H2O2 as an oxidizer, which provides accelerated catalytic oxidation on the surface of the media. Conventional oxidizing agents like chlorine or potassium permanganate also could be used if required.

Katalox Light® can be used for Arsenic, Radium, Uranium removal but in these cases there is requirement of Iron in the water. Katalox Light® system is designed with special iron dosing technology which has many advantages over Adsorbent media used for Heavy Metal removal. The Future of water treatment, as we see it, is going to give us more difficult challenges and we all need more advanced and robust products. In Watch Water®‘s vision, Katalox Light® can be addressed for advanced concepts like Water Reuse, Controlled Adsorption of Arsenic and Heavy Metals, advanced Membrane pre-treatment, Zero-Discharge Cooling tower etc.
