Pre-co-Floc^® cellulose filter aids are environmentally-friendly filtration media made from purified virgin wood pulp. Pre-co-Floc cellulose fibers can be used independently where silica cannot be tolerated in the system, or together with Celatom^® DE or Celatom perlite filter aids. EP Minerals offers a wide range of cellulose fiber grades to meet all your needs. Cellulose produces almost no ash, is non-abrasive, and is inert to acids, alkalis, and solvents.

In filtration applications, cellulose can greatly improve filtration performance when used as a primary or remedial precoat with diatomaceous earth by:

• Bridging gaps in the filter septum and small mechanical leaks in the gaskets and leaf seats.
• Improving the stability of the filter-aid cake to make it more resistant to pressure bumps and interruptions.
• Creating a more uniform precoat with no cracks for more effective filtration surface area.
• Improving cake release and reducing cleaning requirements.
• Preventing fine particulate bleed-through.
• Precoating easily and rapidly.
• Reducing soluble contamination.
