Coir Wastewater Filter Media — Engineered Fibre Media for Solids Capture & Biofiltration


Precision-engineered coconut coir filtration media for suspended solids capture in wastewater treatment systems. Tunable density and thickness for decentralised, municipal, and industrial effluent applications — replacing synthetic PP/PE filter media.
Specifications:

Applications:
-
Decentralised wastewater — Filtration pads for septic biofilters and package treatment plants (residential & commercial)
-
Municipal treatment — Pre-filter media for primary sediment removal in municipal wastewater facilities
-
Industrial effluent — Solids capture for food processing, textile, and manufacturing discharge streams
-
Trickling filters — Random pack coir media replacing plastic bio-media in fixed-film treatment systems
-
Aquaculture — Suspended solids and organic matter filtration in recirculating fish farm systems
Advantages of Coir:
-
Higher solids loading — Open fibre network designed for greater solids holding capacity before change-out vs synthetic media that binds quickly under high-TSS streams.
-
Stable hydraulic flow — Void structure maintains consistent flow under hydraulic load, with slower headloss rise than PP/PE media.
-
Biofiltration compatible — Natural fibre surface supports beneficial microbial attachment for biological treatment stages.
-
Zero microplastic shedding — No synthetic polymer leaching into treated effluent. Eliminates a growing compliance and ESG risk.
-
Simplified end-of-life — Spent coir media is non-hazardous industrial waste. Can be directed to biomass energy recovery where local regulations permit, avoiding the hazardous waste classification that some synthetic media carry.
-
Site-tuneable — Density, thickness, and layering are engineered per site based on pilot data, not one-size-fits-all.
