Mantec Technical Ceramics Ltd products

Ozone is increasingly used to replace chlorine as an agent for killing bacteria and traces of pesticides in potable water. Unlike the chlorine traditionally used, it disappears quickly and leaves no aftertaste. It is typically dispersed into the water not as a pure gas but as an oxygen/gas mixture, usually delivered at a rate of 4 to 5 mg/litre through a series of fine bubble diffusers. Mantec’s Ozone compatible ceramic diffusers are produced with a finely controlled porosity and pore size. Our porous ceramic materials have a long record of applications in the diffusion of gases into different water treatment processes and because the material is chemically inert, they are particularly suitable for ozone.

Following successful field trials of a new micro bubble diffuser designed for the fish farming industry, Mantec has launched an enhanced variant of the product into the market place under the brand CORALith. Building on our heritage of supplying more than 300,000 ceramic diffusers in the past 20 years, this new micro bubble diffuser introduces very small bubbles into the body of water, resulting in more surface area per unit volume and greater oxygen transfer exchange. In addition, agglomeration of bubbles as they rise to the surface is minimised.

Mantec Filtration is the Authorised UK Distributor for ENVICON GmbH. ENVICON EMR membrane tube diffusers are quality products from Germany. Sophisticated membrane mixtures, a modern production process, together with optimised fine-bubble perforation guarantee a high-quality product throughout their service life and durable, cost-effective operation of aeration systems.

The generic word ‘filtration’ can encompass many applications across a wide range of industries, the majority of which can be served by the commonly available filter media where process temperatures are low and / or the environment inert.

To complement our range of Ceramic Filters, Mantec now offers a range of stainless steel filter housings to meet the demands of process air / gas and liquid filtration requirements. They are effective at removing solids from water, chemical, petroleum and other industrial processes via a specially selected ceramic element.

The FSSTH series of stainless steel filters has been developed to meet the demands of process air/gas and liquid filtration requirements. They are effective at removing solids from water, chemical, petroleum and other industrial processes via a specially selected ceramic element.

Mantec’s Puremet Metal Pour Filters are unique ceramic filters formed as a reticulated, irregular, three dimensional, open cell structure with a high average surface area. These filters are used extensively in casting aluminium alloys, stainless steel, super alloys, cobalt and copper alloys, zinc and zinc alloys, iron and steel.

Ceramic membranes are operated in the crossflow filtration mode, a continuous process in which the feed stream flows parallel (tangential) to the membrane filtration surface and generates the two outgoing streams. This mode has the benefit of maintaining a high filtration rate for membrane filters compared with the direct flow filtration mode of conventional filters.

Mantec Technical Ceramics manufactures a range of high quality ceramic substrates in various geometries specifically for the membrane OEM market.
