What
is the IONIC ADSORPTION MICRO FILTRATION SYSTEM?
This advanced technology was developed,
refined, and proven by water purification specialists, researchers
and engineers. Removal of contaminants with carbon is a surface
phenomenon known as adsorption, resulting from the molecular attraction
of substances to the surface of the carbon, as the bottle is pressed
and the source water is forced through the filter. |
The
rate of adsorption is determined by the quality and volume of carbon
used. The flow rate or time of exposure through the filter has been
calculated to yield the greatest volume
removal of toxic chemicals caused by pollution of industry and agriculture.
This exclusive filter also incorporates proprietary absorbing media
that are impregnated into the micro-porous filter for the IONIC
absorption of pollutants into the filter such as aluminum, arsenic,
cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, zinc, and other dangerous
heavy metals. The “Torturous Path” structure of these
pores gives it a unique characteristic that cannot be duplicated
by any other porous material. This design offers the only portable
filter produced using medical grade technology, offering 2 micron
“absolute” pore size—all pores are the same size.
Other micron claims are usually “nominal”, meaning the
majority of the pores are as claimed, but the balance can range
as large as 20+ microns. When analyzing the two alternatives, remember...water
always flows in the line of least resistance. Accept only “absolute”
filtration!
