The first few of these products are similar to the patented Kaldnes media used in fish farming and waste water treatment. The design creates an environment for effective nitrification to take place. Water flow is created by aeration that circulates the media throughout the vessel. This high surface area of these products translates into a small physical area needed for the biofiltration unit.
Due to vigorous mixing of the Kaldnes-like media through aeration, the media is self-cleaning, requiring no maintenance. This allows the filter to reach optimum effectiveness. Periodic maintenance is not necessary, preventing the unnecessary loss of bacteria and subsequent ammonia and nitrite spikes in the system.
