What Can The Water Filter Cartridge Remove?

You will periodically replace the water filter cartridge of the water purifier, which will allow your family to drink safe and healthy water. Do you know what contaminants can filter cartridges remove from the water? By understanding the function of the water filter cartridge, you can replace the filter cartridge with a more purposeful purpose.

The Rust

The water is transported by a galvanized iron pipe, and water and iron are oxidized to form red iron oxide, which further oxidizes to form black ferric oxide. Pipes in new buildings are more susceptible to oxidation. If you find that the tap water is red, this can indicate that the water contains rust. Water filter cartridges such as precipitation cartridges are effective in removing rust from water.

Lead and Other Heavy Metals

During the transportation process, there will be a lot of heavy metals such as lead dissolved in the water. Long-term drinking will increase the burden on the liver and kidneys of the human body, and easily cause diseases in the liver, kidney, heart, and nervous system. To remove heavy metals such as lead from water, you need to install activated carbon water filter cartridges or some advanced water filtration membranes.

The Chlorine

Chlorine is a strong oxidizing agent with a pungent odor and a mouthfeel. Chlorine is a tap water disinfectant widely used internationally.

The residual chlorine is chlorinated and disinfected. After a certain period of contact, the chlorine remaining in the water. The residual chlorine should be kept at 0.05 mg / liter of water to control the growth of bacteria in the transportation process, so the city supply tap water contains residual chlorine. To remove chlorine from the water, the best water filter cartridge is an activated carbon filter that removes more than 90% of the chlorine in the water.

The Bacterial

Whether it is surface water or groundwater as a source of water, bacteria and E. coli in tap water can be said to be ubiquitous. Water is the source of life. The water contains nutrients, and the water has relative thermal stability, thus providing an excellent environment for the growth and reproduction of various bacteria. Even if the water contains a very small amount of nutrients, bacteria and viruses will survive and breed. Everyone knows the dangers of bacteria and viruses.

A water purifier is a product that removes suspended solids from water and organic compounds, inorganic compounds, heavy metals, bacteria that are harmful to the human body, and retains the vector elements and minerals required by the human body. The water treated by the water purifier, although apparently no different from the original water, has undergone significant changes in water quality.

The working principle of the water purifier is to purify the water layer by various water filter cartridges to achieve the purpose of removing impurities. The filter cartridge of the water purifier mainly includes a granular activated carbon filter cartridge, a reverse osmosis filter cartridge and a rear activated carbon filter.

The water filter cartridge with better material can remove impurities such as sediment, rust, bacteria and suspended solids in the water, remove the odor in the water, and remove metal ions and radioactive substances such as calcium and magnesium in the water to completely purify and soften the water.
