De-Nitrate is an economical, natural, and porous material with a pore distribution and shape that enhances both aerobic nitrification in the first millimeters of depth and anaerobic nitrification at the center. The material has a high surface area and supports a high density of bacteria. Although De-Nitrate has the ability to trap nitrates, this ability, like other materials that retain nitrates, such as some zeolites and synthetic resins, is very limited, and the primary mechanism for nitrate removal is anaerobic.

Main Features:

• Removes nitrates, nitrites, ammonia, and organic matter
• Highly porous biological media
• Pore size is perfectly suited for anaerobic bacteria
• No risk of hydrogen sulfide production as with sulfur-based media

Instructions:
For best results, De-Nitrate should be placed to ensure water flows through it, such as in a canister filter, chemical filtration unit, or box filter. The flow rate should not exceed 200 liters (50 US gallons) per hour.
