1. Find out what is quartz sand?
Quartz sand is a type of sand whose main ingredient is Silicon dioxide (SiO2), in addition it also contains a number of other chemical elements such as: CO2, NaCl.H2O, CaCO3,… They are mainly used in emergency treatment. water, pure water, household water. In developed countries, quartz sand is used to treat arsenic-contaminated water sources and helps remove up to 99.9999% of impurities in water.
Quartz sand is most often used in water filtration systems because the high silica content contained in the sand creates the best adsorbent filter of this type of sand, thanks to its outstanding filtration properties, up to 100% filtration efficiency. impurities in water , Therefore this filtering material is considered the most important component of the water filtration system (prefilter) to remove impurities as well as toxic substances from water.
In sand water filtration technology, it usually has a high sio2 content, usually about 97%, to be considered good water treatment.
With many good uses of quartz sand, THANH NAM INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORTATION TRADING JSC is the most prestigious company selling quartz sand on the market, the product is trusted by friends and partners in many provinces and cities such as Thanh Hoa, Hanoi, Hai Duong, Thai Binh, Nghe An, Yen Bai, Son La, Tuyen Quang,… and nationwide are interested and come to buy at the most preferential prices.
Products are mainly exploited in Quang Ninh. This place has a source of quality quartz sand that has been proven to meet international standards.

3. Advantages and effects of Quartz Sand
Quartz sand in particular and high silica sand in general are indispensable filtering materials for those who need to use clean water. It brings great economic benefits and is extremely effective. With small particle size, even particle layers, large specific surface, high filtration efficiency. Can be filtered regularly when the filter surface deposits sediment into thick layers.
In a basic well water filtration system, quartz sand for water filtration to maximize its power needs to be used with some other types of filter materials such as: activated carbon, manganese sand, Birm granules, filter materials. mq7… The above materials all need to be poured on supporting materials such as quartz gravel or water filter gravel.
Quartz sand is used in wastewater treatment, purified water, well water filtration, home… It has the effect of filtering suspended components with small particle sizes that are unable to precipitate when allowed to settle naturally.
During the filtration process, a filter layer will be created on the surface of the sand to support the water treatment process, especially when iron 3 oxide precipitates on its surface which will help adsorb Arsenic when the water source is at risk of contamination. Arsenic contamination.
– Able to remove residue from groundwater and wastewater without requiring much reconstitution.
– Long-term use, high reliability, can wash the filter regularly when the filter surface deposits sediment into thick layers, does not change the properties and quality of the water
– Simple processing technology with low maintenance requirements
– Reasonable price.
4. Practical application
– Many other industries also use quartz sand such as: construction, concrete pouring, waterproofing, mini plasma cutters,…
– Is one of the materials used in construction, paving bricks, sidewalks, planting trees…
– Used in the paint spraying industry, glass cutting, Porter casting, metallurgy…
– Quartz sand can be used in feng shui (if the quartz blocks are large, they can have a very beautiful shape and are loved by many feng shui players).
– In addition, the use of quartz sand in the construction industry such as dried sand to make dry mortar, waterproofing sand, mold sand, sand to clean metal surfaces, sand for golf courses and playgrounds achieves good results. Best compared to some other sand.
5. How to use:
Filtered water will ensure 100% removal of toxic substances, chemicals, viruses, bacteria, etc. Completely removes unpleasant tastes in water, completely removes dirt stuck in water. Guaranteed excellent fresh water source.
But nothing lasts forever. Over time, moss and impurities will seep into the sand. At this point, we should take it out and rinse it for reuse or, if possible, we should replace it.
Combine quartz sand with water filter gravel, Activated Carbon, anthracite, etc. to remove suspended matter from the water.
Regularly rinse and backwash to wash away suspended sediments covering the sand surface and avoid clogging during the filtration process;
Filter sand should be replaced within 6 months to 12 months;
