SIPHON Type Sand Washing System
We developed a new washing technology
The idea of the “Singing Sand mechanism”, what we call “Kneading Action”, that edges each sand particle on a beach developed our original washing system which can generate the kneading action by a screw. It can exfoliate adhesion sludge without any damage to the size of the sand particle.
How does raw sand become dirty ?
Daily maintenance, backwashing, surface washing, and air washing can’t remove attached objects perfectly. Sludge is accumulated on the filter media, little by little, so “Attached Sludge” changes them to “Hard Sludge” which is hardened firmly.
Original sand wash technology SIPHON WASHING
This washing method can clean dirty sand in a short time. Used dirty sand is reborn like new media without changing the particle size or replacing the filter media!

| A vortex flow is generated By the gravity of particles and the lift force created by the screw. | Particles running outward due to the centrifugal force generate a vortex flow. |
Our sand washing system, which creates twin vertical and horizontal vortices, causes sand particles to knead each other in a three-dimensional washing action. The vertical vortex is created in each sand particle by gravity and scooping up force. The horizontal vortex is created in each particle by centrifugal and returning force after hitting the side of inner cylinder. These twin vortices make sand particles knead and rubb each other in the three-dimensional (3D) washing action.
