- Deep bed filtration results in superior water quality and reduces the load on downstream equipment.
- High sediment removal capacity results in longer filter runs, with a substantial savings in backwash water and time out of service.
- High service flow rates result in lower equipment costs and a savings in space.
- Reduced shipping cost due to lighter weight/cu.ft.
- Replacement of multimedia with Filter-Ag Plus in existing installations may increase filter capacity.
- Filter-Ag Plus is an all-natural, environmentally safe product.

SKU: MTR-FILTERAGPLUS
Filter-Ag Plus is a unique natural ore called clinoptilolite, a natural zeolite, selectively removes ammonium ions and heavy metals through ion exchange. Its porous structure and high exchange capacity enable efficient contaminant removal with reliable regeneration capabilities.Description
Filter-Ag Plus is a unique natural ore called clinoptilolite that has many outstanding advantages over common granular filter sands and multimedia used for suspended solids reduction. Clinoptilolite, a naturally occurring zeolite mineral, functions as a selective ion exchange medium with exceptional affinity for ammonium ions and heavy metals in water treatment. Its crystalline aluminosilicate structure creates a vast network of channels and pores that enable efficient capture of specific ions while allowing water to flow through freely. The material’s high cation exchange capacity makes it particularly effective for removing ammonium from aquaculture systems and wastewater, while simultaneously reducing levels of heavy metals like lead, copper, and zinc. Clinoptilolite’s robust structure maintains its integrity through multiple regeneration cycles, typically using sodium chloride solutions, making it cost-effective for long-term use in both industrial and municipal applications.
