Drinking Water Filtration & Technologies
Discover how certified filtration mechanisms separate dissolved chemical contaminants, heavy metals, and microbiological organisms.
Reverse Osmosis (RO)
Water is forced under domestic line pressure across a dense semi-permeable polyamide thin-film composite (TFC) membrane. Contaminants larger than water molecules are rejected and flushed to the drain line, producing high-purity permeate water.
Activated Carbon Filtration (Solid Block / GAC)
Utilizes high-surface-area activated coconut shell or bituminous coal carbon. Contaminant molecules adhere to the extensive internal micro-pore structure through physical and chemical adsorption (Van der Waals forces). Catalytic formulations accelerate chloramine breakdown.
Ion Exchange (Specialized Resins)
Water flows through a tank or cartridge packed with microscopic polymer resin beads loaded with exchangeable ions (e.g., chloride or sodium). As water passes, target ions (such as negatively charged arsenate, nitrate, or cationic heavy metals) exhibit higher chemical affinity and displace the resin ions.
Cation Exchange Water Softening
Hard water passes over strong acid cation (SAC) resin beads saturated with sodium ions. The resin captures calcium and magnesium ions and releases an equivalent ionic charge of sodium. A periodic brine backwash regenerates the beads.
Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection
Water travels through a quartz sleeve surrounded by a germicidal UV-C lamp emitting light at 254 nanometers. The UV photon energy penetrates microbial cell walls and disrupts their DNA/RNA dimer bonds, preventing replication and infection.
Mechanical Sediment Filtration
Depth or pleated spun-polypropylene cartridges capture suspended suspended solids through physical straining.
