What Adverse Impurities Remove Water Filters

Contaminants enter the natural waters, which can be divided into the following categories:

• Microbiological: bacteria, cysts, viruses, helminths;
• Organic and inorganic chemical compounds;
• Organoleptics that change the taste and smell of water;
• Radiological - nuclides.

At waterworks, natural water is chlorinated, and some of the pollutants are destroyed during this process. But, at the same time, chlorine, reacting with organic substances, forms even more dangerous to health compounds. Therefore, a guarantee of safety for health can only be provided by high-quality water filters with an integrated purification system from all types of pollution. It should also be taken into account that, even after centralized disinfection in water supply systems, hazardous contaminants may appear in the water, which penetrate there through loose connections, valves, seals.
The most common of the chemical impurities are nitrates. These substances are part of the nitrogen cycle and appear in the water because of intensive agricultural activity near the groundwater flow. In some countries, the concentration of nitrates in water is 50 mg per liter.
Lead and heavy metals are contained in pipes, solders, choke joints. Their particles also dissolve in water and make it dangerous for consumption.
As a coagulant in water purification systems, aluminum compounds are used. In many cases (human factor, non-compliance with technology, accident), their content after cleaning exceeds the established norms. Excess of aluminum compounds in water leads to Alzheimer's disease, slows metabolism. This light metal in excess leads to very serious consequences.
Externally , water pollution by water is not determined by aluminum. The maximum permissible in our country the norm of aluminum in water is half a liter per liter. Real analysis in many regions shows the excess of this indicator several times.
Aluminum compounds are difficult to "catch". They freely penetrate through the carbon filters and do not participate in ion exchange. Specialists of Aquaphor company adapted the Aqualin fiber for water purification from aluminum compounds. Recently, a new variety of Aqualine with a three-dimensional structure was developed and supplemented with chemical "hooks" that capture and hold aluminum compounds on its surface. At the same time heavy metals and other harmful impurities are also delayed with high efficiency.
Filters Aquaphor with effective protection against aluminum is already on sale. They are especially relevant in the spring, when, with the arrival of warm days, the load on water treatment facilities increases, the time for settling water decreases. There are observed the processes of spring "flowering" of water - the rapid growth of bacteria and algae in it. In such conditions, the vodokanals use more coagulants with aluminum, but not always after cleaning, the water corresponds to the norms.
Choosing for yourself water filters, pay attention to the products of the company Aquafor (filters Aquaphor Favorit and Morion). Their water treatment systems are able to successfully fight with aluminum compounds. So the resource of the cartridge in the flow filter Aquafor Favarit is 7000l, which allows you to provide an average family of 3-4 people with drinking water for 1 year. Aquafor Morion reverse osmosis filter, which is very compact in comparison with other similar reverse osmosis systems, can operate with a higher purification rate (almost 99%), it can work at a pressure in the water supply network from 2 atm, while its storage tank always allows to have it in stock 5 liters of perfectly clean drinking water
