About this model
This model was created to be used in a pond filter to help keep swimming ponds free of algae. It is an alternative traditional filtration media. The advantages of this model are that thanks to 3D printing we can achieve a much larger surface area per volume of the media and at a lower price for the same result. It is not used to sift particles from the water but instead to create as large of a surface as possible on which microorganisms that keep the water clean live, to create a so-called biofilm (self-sustaining layer of microorganisms aggregated in an extracellular matrix on surfaces exposed to liquids and protected from being killed by most types of antimicrobial agents). We’ve done some calculations and when printed with a 10% gyroid infill at 0.2 mm layer height it has a surface …
