BECOFLOC filter flakes combine strong positive electro-kinetic charges for the adsorption of turbidity particles with ideal material structure reinforce the filter cake and increase its volume of pre-coat filtration. The filtration of turbidities from liquids is a decisive step of production in many areas.
BECOFLOC 10 filter additive is used for ultra-fine and polishing filtration at high retention rates and with excellent filtration volumes. It always improves the clarification efficiency at equal or even reduced diatomaceous earth consumption and improves clarity of the filtrate when used in body-feed.
