de nitrate
™
Removes nitrates, nitrites, ammonia, and organics
High porosity biological media
Pore size well suited for anaerobic bacteria
No danger of hydrogen sulfide production as with sulfur based media
Overview
de nitrate™ is an economical, natural, porous material
with a pore distribution and geometry that promotes both aerobic
nitrification within the first few millimeters of depth and anaerobic
denitrification at the core. The material has a high surface area and
supports a high density of bacteria. Although de nitrate™ has capacity
to trap nitrate, this, as with other nitrate retaining materials, such
as certain zeolites and synthetic resins, is quite limited and the
primary mechanism of nitrate removal is anaerobic.
“Live” rocks or reef rocks remove nitrate by anaerobic
denitrification. de nitrate™ removes nitrate by the same process.
Efficiency is magnified several folds by forcing the water to filter
through the porous de nitrate™. As with reef rock, anaerobic conditions
are achieved by the porosity and the depletion of oxygen by the aerobic
process at the surface. Excessive flow rates should, therefore, be
avoided, as they may impede development of an adequate anaerobic
environment to support denitrifying bacteria.
de nitrate™ is also an excellent media for aerobic
nitrification and it makes an ideal biological filter in drip trays,
canister filters, sumps, or even box filters. At high flow rates
(greater than 100 US gallons per hour), it will function solely as an
aerobic filter. At slow flow rates (less than 50 US gallons per hour),
it will function as both an aerobic filter and an anaerobic denitrifying
filter.
Directions
For best results, de nitrate™ should be placed to assure the flow of
water through it, such as in a canister filter, chemical filtration
module, or box filter. Flow rate should not exceed 200 L (50 US gallons)
per hour. If higher flow rates are unavoidable, use Matrix or Pond Matrix
It is best to rinse off dust before use. Once de nitrate™ has been in
use for several days, nitrate concentrations should start to fall and
level off gradually at a concentration of about 4–5 mg/L as nitrate. As
long as nitrate concentrations remain under control, the product is not
exhausted. Each 500 mL of de nitrate™ treats about 100–200 L (25–50 US
gallons), depending on initial nitrate concentration and the current
biological load. Enough should be used to remove nitrate at a rate at
least as fast as the rate of formation. If very high nitrates are
initially present, they should be brought down to less than 20 mg/L with
water changes.
