Overview
EN 14368:2015 - published by CEN - specifies requirements for manganese dioxide coated limestone used in the treatment of water intended for human consumption. The standard defines identification and composition (MnO2 on CaCO3), physical appearance, particle size distributions, density ranges, chemical purity expectations, specific performance (oxidation capacity) and the corresponding test methods. It also provides information on safe handling, labelling, transportation and storage for this filtration/oxidation media.
Keywords: EN 14368:2015, manganese dioxide coated limestone, water treatment, drinking water, filtration media, oxidation capacity, particle size distribution, bulk density.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Identification and composition
- Chemical formula: MnO2 and CaCO3; CAS numbers provided for components.
- Appearance: granular, dark grey to black, visually homogeneous and free of extraneous matter.
- Particle size
- Described either by effective size (d10 with ±5% tolerance) and uniformity coefficient (U < 2.0), or by particle size ranges with specific mass fraction limits for oversize/undersize.
- Oversize/undersize mass fraction: typically ≤ 5% (multimedia filters) or ≤ 10% (single media filters).
- Bulk density
- Loose bulk density: 1 500–1 700 kg/m³.
- Packed bulk density: 1 700–1 900 kg/m³.
- Performance
- Oxidation capacity: minimum 500 bed volumes as tested per the standard’s method.
- Chemical properties
- Minimum purity and limits for common impurities are specified; any additional impurities from raw materials or processes must be notified to users.
- Test methods and quality control
- Includes sampling, particle size analysis, bulk density tests, oxidation capacity determination and guidance for laboratory analysis.
- Health & safety
- Annexes cover safe handling, emergency procedures (first aid, spillage, fire), labelling and storage compatibility.
Applications and users
- Used as an oxidizing/filtration media in drinking-water treatment to remove dissolved manganese and related contaminants.
- Typical users:
- Water utilities and plant operators
- Filter-media manufacturers and suppliers
- Water treatment engineers and consultants
- Regulatory authorities and testing laboratories
- Typical applications include multimedia or single-media filters where manganese removal and oxidation are required prior to distribution.
