Ilitye lentaba-mlilo (elidla ngokubizwa ngokuba yi-pumice okanye i-porous basalt) sisixhobo esisebenzayo nesihambelana nokusingqongileyo, nelitye elinqabileyo kakhulu elibunjwe yiglasi yentaba-mlilo, iiminerali, kunye namaqamza emva kogqabhuko-dubulo lwentaba-mlilo.Ilitye le-volcanic liqulethe ezininzi iiminerali kunye nezinto ezilandelwayo ezifana nesodium, i-magnesium, i-aluminium, i-silicon, i-calcium, i-titanium, i-manganese, isinyithi, i-nickel, i-cobalt, kunye ne-molybdenum.Ayinamitha kwaye inamaza emagnethi akwi-infrared.Emva kogqabhuko-dubulo lwentaba-mlilo olungenalusini, emva kwamashumi amawaka eminyaka, abantu baya befumanisa ngakumbi ukubaluleka kwayo.Ngoku iye yandise imimandla yesicelo sayo ukuya kumabala afana nolwakhiwo, ugcino lwamanzi, ukugaya, izixhobo zokuhluza, amalahle okosa inyama, ukucwangciswa komhlaba, ukulima okungenamhlaba, kunye neemveliso zokuhombisa, idlala indima engenakuphinda ibuyiselwe kumashishini ahlukeneyo.Iimpawu ze-volcanic pumice (basalt) kunye neempawu ezibonakalayo ze-volcanic rock biological filter materials.

Ukubonakala kunye nokuma: Akukho zincinci ezibukhali, ukuchasana okuphantsi kokuhamba kwamanzi, akulula ukuvimba, amanzi asasazwa ngokulinganayo kunye nomoya, indawo erhabaxa, isantya sokuxhoma ifilimu ekhawulezayo, kwaye incinci kakhulu kwi-microbial film detachment ngexesha lokugungxulwa ngokuphindaphindiweyo.

I-Porosity: Amatye e-volcanic ngokwendalo aneeselula kwaye aneentunjana, ezenza ezona ndawo zikhula kakuhle kuluntu lwe-microbial.

Amandla oomatshini: Ngokwesebe lokuhlola umgangatho wesizwe, yi-5.08Mpa, engqinwe ukuba inokumelana neziphumo zokucheba nge-hydraulic yamandla ahlukeneyo kwaye inobomi benkonzo obude kakhulu kunezinye izixhobo zokucoca.

Ubuninzi: Ubuninzi obuphakathi, kulula ukuxhoma ngexesha lokuhlamba umva ngaphandle kokuvuza kwezinto, ezinokonga amandla kunye nokunciphisa ukusetyenziswa.

Uzinzo lwe-biochemical: Izixhobo ze-biofilter ye-Volcanic rock ziyakwazi ukumelana nomhlwa, zinert, kwaye azithathi nxaxheba kwiimpendulo ze-biochemical of biofilms kwindalo esingqongileyo.

Umbane ongaphezulu kunye ne-hydrophilicity: Umphezulu we-volcanic rock biofilter unentlawulo elungileyo, ekhuthaza ukukhula okuzinzileyo kwemicroorganisms.Ine-hydrophilicity eyomeleleyo, isixa esikhulu se-biofilm eqhotyoshelweyo, kunye nesantya esikhawulezayo.

Ngokwempembelelo kumsebenzi we-biofilm: Njengomntu ophethe i-biofilm, i-volcanic rock biofilter media ayinabungozi kwaye ayinayo impembelelo yokuthintela kwii-microorganisms ezisisigxina, kwaye ukuziqhelanisa kuye kwangqina ukuba ayichaphazeli umsebenzi we-microorganisms.

Indima yamatye e-volcanic yi-1: amanzi asebenzayo.Amatye e-volcanic angenza i-ion emanzini (ingakumbi ngokunyusa umxholo we-oxygen ion) kwaye inokukhulula kancinane i-A-rays kunye nemitha ye-infrared, eluncedo kwiintlanzi nakubantu.Isiphumo sokubulala iintsholongwane kumatye entaba-mlilo asinakungahoywa, kwaye ukuzongeza kwi-aquarium kunokuthintela ngokufanelekileyo kwaye kunyange izigulana.

Indima yamatye entaba-mlilo kukuzinzisa umgangatho wamanzi.

Oku kuquka iinxalenye ezimbini: ukuzinza kwe-pH, enokulungelelanisa amanzi ane-asidi kakhulu okanye i-alkaline kakhulu ukuvala ngokuzenzekelayo ukungathathi hlangothi.Ukuzinza komxholo wamaminerali, amatye e-volcanic aneempawu ezimbini zokukhulula izinto ezimbiwa kunye nokufunxa ukungcola emanzini.Xa kuncinci okanye kuninzi kakhulu, ukukhululwa kwayo kunye ne-adsorption kwenzeka.Uzinzo lwexabiso le-PH lomgangatho wamanzi ekuqaleni kwe-Arhat kwaye ngexesha lokufaka imibala kubalulekile.

Umsebenzi wamatye entaba-mlilo kukubangela umbala.

Amatye e-volcanic agqamile kwaye endalo ngombala.Banesiphumo esibalulekileyo sombala onomtsalane kwiintlanzi ezininzi zokuhombisa, ezifana ne-Arhat, iHashe eliBomvu, iParrot, i-Red Dragon, iSanhu Cichao, njalo njalo.Ngokukodwa, i-Arhat inesici sokuba umzimba wayo usondele kumbala wezinto ezijikelezayo.Ubomvu bamatye entaba-mlilo iya kuphembelela umbala we-Arhat ukuba ube bomvu ngokuthe ngcembe.
