Ka whakatakotoria te diatomite e ngā toenga o te karengo wai pūtau-kotahi i raro i ētahi āhuatanga whenua. Ko te diatomite
e tohuhia ana e te porowhita, te horahanga mata motuhake nui, te iti o te kiato, te pai o te mimiti, te ātete waikawa me te ātete wera. Ko te āwhina tātari e hangaia ana e tā mātou kamupene he mea hanga ki te oneone diatomaceous hei rauemi mata mā te whakamaroke, te kuru, te whakaranu, te whakapūkara, te wehenga hau, te whakarōpūtanga me ētahi atu tukanga. Ko tana mahi he wehewehe i te totoka me te wai i te wai, me te whakamārama i te tātari.
E whakamahia ana ngā whakakī ahumahi diatomite i roto i te umanga patu pepeke: te paura mākū, te patu taru whenua maroke, te patu taru mara raihi me te
ngā patupatu koiora rerekē.
Ngā painga o te whakamahi i te diatomite: He koretake te uara PH, kāore he paitini, he mahi whakatārewatanga, he kaha te mahi mimiti, he māmā te taumaha papatipu, he 115% te tere mimiti hinu, he pai te matotoru i roto i te 325 mata —500 mata, he pai te whakaranu ōrite, kāore e aukati i te paipa mīhini ahuwhenua ina whakamahia, ka taea te purei i roto i te oneone he oneone makuku, he oneone wetekina, ka roa ake te wā whai hua me te pānga tongi, ka whakatairanga i te tipu o ngā hua.

Te whakamahi i ngā taputapu tātari diatomite:
1. Ngā mea kakara: monosodium glutamate, soya soya, winika, hinu huamata, hinu colza, me ētahi atu.
2. Inu: pia, utu kiore, waina kōwhai, wai hua, waina, inu tirikara, me ētahi atu.
3. Rongoā: paturopi, huaora, rongoā tuku iho Hainamana kua whakatikatikaina, whakakī mō te niho, whakapaipai, me ētahi atu.
4. Ngā hua matū: waikawa waro, waikawa kohuke, alkyd, peita hinu, vinylite, me ētahi atu.
5. Ngā hua hinu ahumahi: hinu whakahinuhinu, ngā tāpiringa o te hinu whakahinuhinu, tāpiringa hinu, hinu pepa whakarewa whakarara,
hinu whakawhiti, tāra waro, me ētahi atu
6. Te maimoatanga wai: te wai para o ia rā, te wai para ahumahi, te maimoatanga para, te wai puna kaukau, me ētahi atu.
7. Ahumahi Huka: tirikara hua, kūhuka, huka māngaro, sucrose, me ētahi atu.
