KDF-85E

Description

KDF®-85E is a high-purity copper-zinc process media that is offered in granule form, with coarse and fine mesh sizes. It is non-toxic, 100% recyclable and contains no chemical additives. It targets iron and hydrogen sulfide, also controlling scale, bacteria, and algae.

KDF®-85E medium removes more than 90% of iron from groundwater supplies. When left untreated, iron can impart objectionable taste and color to potable water and can severely stain household fixtures. KDF® process media not only removes iron from water, but also costs less, with one-third as much KDF®-85 medium providing three times the effective flow rate compared to alternate filter media. KDF®-85 media also eliminates hydrogen sulfide, a highly corrosive gas formed in groundwater when bacteria decompose vegetation and other organic matter. This safe and economical treatment method converts the hydrogen sulfide gas to an insoluble sulfide, an inert and harmless precipitant, then filters the precipitant from the water, with periodic backwashing eliminating accumulations in the media bed. In addition to iron and hydrogen sulfide removal, both point-of-entry and point-of-use applications use KDF® to remove chlorine, lead, other heavy metals, and a variety of impurities for household water treatment in drinking water and showerhead filter applications.
