Iyungurura isi ya Diatomaceous yerekeza kuyungurura hamwe nubutaka bwa diatomaceous nk'urwego rwo kuyungurura, cyane cyane hakoreshejwe uburyo bwo gushungura imashini kugirango ukemure uburyo bwo gutunganya amazi yo mu mazi arimo utuntu duto twahagaritswe. Iyungurura isi ya Diatomaceous iyungurura vino n'ibinyobwa bifite uburyohe budahindutse, ntabwo ari uburozi, butarimo ibimera byahagaritswe nubutaka, kandi birasobanutse kandi bisobanutse. Akayunguruzo ka diatomite gafite ubunini bwo kuyungurura neza, bushobora kugera kuri microne 1-2, burashobora gushungura Escherichia coli na algae, kandi ubwinshi bwamazi yungurujwe ni dogere 0,5 kugeza kuri 1. Ibikoresho bitwikiriye agace gato, uburebure buke bwibikoresho, ingano ihwanye gusa na 1/3 cya filteri yumucanga, irashobora kuzigama igice kinini cyishoramari mukubaka ubwubatsi bwicyumba cyimashini; ubuzima burebure bwubuzima hamwe no kwangirika kwinshi kubintu byungurura.
