Hexagonal Honeycomb Filler | Microbial Carrier | Polypropylene Honeycomb Filler

Working Principle

Hexagonal honeycomb filler works in two ways. The inclined tubes use a honeycomb structure to speed up particle settling, handling sedimentation and grit removal; the straight tubes act as a microbial carrier, giving biofilm a surface to attach and grow on, so microorganisms form a biofilm on the tube walls to treat the wastewater biologically. Polypropylene honeycomb filler is made of polypropylene — lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and structurally stable, built for long-term service.

Application Fields

1.Inlet grit removal: honeycomb inclined tubes speed up sand settling.
2.Water and wastewater sedimentation: separating suspended solids and oil.
3.Biological filters and contact oxidation tanks: straight tubes as a microbial carrier for biological aeration.
4.New projects and tank retrofits: selecting and replacing filler for sedimentation and biological systems.

FAQ

Q1: What are the main features of hexagonal honeycomb filler?
A: Hexagonal honeycomb filler comes in inclined-tube and straight-tube forms — inclined tubes handle sedimentation and grit removal, while straight tubes serve as a microbial carrier. Polypropylene honeycomb filler is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and easy to install, working for both new builds and retrofits.

Q2: Where are inclined tubes and straight tubes used respectively?
A: Inclined tubes are mainly for sedimentation and grit removal, suiting water and wastewater settling, oil separation, and tailings concentration; straight tubes act as a microbial carrier in biological filters and contact oxidation tanks for biological treatment.

Q3: What conditions suit polypropylene honeycomb filler?
A: Polypropylene honeycomb filler is made of polypropylene — lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and structurally stable, built for long-term service — and is widely used in sedimentation and biological systems, especially where light weight and durability matter.
