MLEE // Filtration Media

The most basic and dependable treatment of contaminated air and water streams involves filtration through media in fixed bed contactor vessels. The selection of the media to be used depends on the type of contamination to be removed. The design of the filter vessels is also critical to the performance of the systems. MLEE provides filtration vessels for a wide range of flow rates, operating pressures and applications for both water and air. Our technical team can help you select the best combination of vessel design and media for your application.

MLEE also supplies bulk filtration media for replacement in existing filtration systems and may be able to help you optimize the performance of your system by selecting the best media for your operation.

Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) has long been the industry workhorse for water and air filtration. GAC can remove a wide range of organic components from air or water and is also extensively used for odor and color removal. MLEE supplies high quality GAC to the remediation, industrial and municipal markets.

Activated Clay has gained a solid reputation for its ability to treat water containing high levels of long chain hydrocarbons such as diesel and fuel oil. It is also particularly effective against a range of PAH's and PCB. Activated Clay (TM-100) is made by modifying high purity bentonite clay with quaternary amine, providing a unique and effective treatment technology.

Activated Alumina is an effective filtration media for use in the removal of a wide range of inorganic compounds. Through cooperation with Alcan, MLEE is able to provide Activated Alumina for removal of a range of metals and other ions from water streams. A specialty activated alumina has also been developed for arsenic removal.

Due to world economic factors such as fuel costs, tariffs, international export taxes, and raw materials costs, MLE has experienced a number of changes in the carbon and filtration media business over the past few months. We have been working hard to secure strong partnerships and efficient supply chains to ensure that we can offer high quality and cost effective products for your future projects.
