Quartz Filter Media Selection for Industrial Systems
If you need quartz filter media, buy the grading required by your filtration and backwash design.
Relia's quartz proposals can be reviewed against sieve data, material identity and relevant cleanliness requirements.
- Duty
- Filtration and equipment requirements
- Grading
- Range, effective size and uniformity
- Backwash
- Relevant equipment compatibility

A Factory Proposal for Your Application
Relia manufactures quartz and related silica materials in China through its own factories.
Our filter-media enquiry should include your filter design, existing media specification and backwash requirements. Give us the required sieve range and the limits relevant to fines or impurities. The proposed material should be identified as the actual quartz grade before it is compared with a different treatment medium.

The Filter Duty
A quartz-filter-media enquiry needs an actual grading specification and media identity. The catalogue includes a clear 70–120 mesh entry, an entry mixing mesh and millimetre descriptions, and a greensand-silica entry with inconsistent chemistry fields. We resolve those differences before proposing material for a filter.

Quartz Filter Media with Resolved Size and Identity
| Review area | Listed data and acceptance basis | Use in your selection |
|---|---|---|
| Quartz · 6547 | The title identifies 70–120 mesh and at least 99.5% SiO2. Confirm the actual grading, relevant cleanliness and offered fraction. | Use the same particle measurement basis, then review dispersion and the result in your process. |
| Quartz · 6559 | The entry mixes a 10–200 mesh option with millimetre-sized fractions. Request a sieve record for the exact offered material. | Use the same particle measurement basis, then review dispersion and the result in your process. |
| Greensand-silica · 6550 | The chemistry fields are inconsistent. Do not treat the title as proof of a functional greensand treatment medium. | Use this item to define the candidate and the evidence needed for your application. |
| Filter requirement | Define support or filtration role, effective size, uniformity, bed arrangement and the system's relevant media acceptance. | Use this item to define the candidate and the evidence needed for your application. |
Relevant Grades for Your Shortlist
Use these listed candidates to start a grade-specific discussion with us.
Grading with Backwash Context
Compare a clearly identified media sample against the filter's actual specification and relevant hydraulic or filtration checks. Keep the grading record and material analysis together. We do not infer contaminant-removal capability or drinking-water approval from a quartz or greensand word in a product title.

Silica purity
Does not establish the full media duty.
Trade names
Do not prove removal capability.
Powders
Are not automatically filter-media grades.
Washing, Separation and Size Classification
Washing removes loose fine material, while screening separates the grain sizes offered as filter media. A mesh range and a millimetre range need a consistent sieve basis, especially where a catalogue entry contains conflicting designations. Connect the proposed sieve result and delivered cleanliness with your equipment requirements rather than inferring filter behaviour from SiO2 content.
Identify the quartz source
The starting mineral and its associated impurities define the purification task.
Wash and separate
Washing removes loose material; further separation depends on the form and location of the impurities.
Create the size fraction
Screening or classification establishes the grain population offered to the buyer.
Verify the proposed grade
Connect the actual chemistry and sieve results with the specific glass, refractory or filtration requirement.
- Impurities
- Do not infer a particular iron limit from total SiO2 alone.
- Grading
- Keep the actual sieve method and units with the proposed fraction.
- Use
- Hydraulic media, glass feed and refractory powder require distinct acceptance evidence.
A Replacement-Media Specification
Retain the accepted grading, material identity and equipment reference together. We discuss packaging and batch checks against that file. A different grading or filter duty provides a clear reason for another review.

Choose the Next Useful Guide
If you buy quartz sand for glassmaking, a high SiO2 figure must be accompanied by the impurity and grading data your glass batch needs.
If you need silica for a refractory formulation, first distinguish quartz flour from other materials called silica powder or silica fume.
If you buy sodium acetate as a wastewater carbon source, compare the chemical form and effective-carbon basis before price per tonne.
