 Technology Profile

Title:

High Flow Rate Arsenic Removal Filter

Value Proposition:

Efficient removal of arsenic contamination, As(III) and As(V) for producing arsenic-free wate.

Summary Application:

The developed technology is -

Affordable, high-flow rate water filter

Filterable water with maximum arsenic concentration of ~300 ppb

Flow rate:  4000-5000 LPH

Long-lasting media

Adsorbents are non-toxic, low cost, and easily accessible in large quantities

Regeneration of the media by the back-wash facility

Advantages:

Reduces various health problems including skin cancers due to consumption of Arsenic contaminated water.
