PRODUCT
Walnut Shell can be used to remove suspended solids
and organic material from produced water, surface water
and river, lake and well water. Walnut Shell Grit treats and
removes suspended solids, oily residues, ash and metallic
hydroxides from industrial liquids in power generation,
metal working, and municipal chemical petroleum and
petrochemical applications.
OTHER USES
Walnut Shell Grit prevents lost circulation on oil well
drilling. Provides a non-skid enhancer in abrasive paints
around swimming pools, walkways, dock boards and other
areas where a rough surface is required. Serves as a filler
prior to burnout – a porosity enhancer for grinding wheels
and ceramics. Preserves gel-coat when removing paint
from fiberglass boats. Wide range of surface patterns can
be achieved with 7 grades of Walnut Shell Grit (6/12 to
60/100) available.
