Waghmart’s Filtration Media (Sand) is engineered specifically for Effluent Treatment Plants (ETPs) and Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs), ensuring high filtration efficiency and superior removal of suspended particles, turbidity, and organic matter. Our media is sourced from premium-grade quartz silica sand and processed to achieve uniform grain size, hardness, and purity. Whether you're designing a new filtration system or replacing old media, Waghmart Sand Media offers exceptional flow capacity, high dirt holding ability, and low pressure loss, making it an ideal choice for both pressure sand filters and gravity filters.
Our ETP Sand Filtration Media is a naturally sourced, graded quartz silica sand with optimized granule sizes ranging from 0.4 mm to 2.5 mm depending on application. It is washed, dried, and sieved to meet the requirements of high-performance water and wastewater treatment systems. This media is suitable for use in multimedia filters, pressure sand filters, and gravity sand filters.

Choose Correct Sand Grade
– Based on system design (fine, medium, or coarse sand)
Clean the Filter Bed Area
– Ensure the tank or filter chamber is free from residue and oil.
Layer Media Properly
– Load coarser layers at the bottom, followed by finer sand on top (if using multi-media layers)
Backwash Before Use
– Perform an initial backwash to remove residual dust or fines.
Start Filtration Cycle
– Operate the system normally; monitor flow rate and pressure drop.
Routine Maintenance
– Backwash regularly to maintain filtration efficiency.
