A ceramic filtration system is equiped with natural ceramic media as the heart of a water filtration process. The ceramic filter cartridge, often referred to as a ceramic filter candle, processes the water and removes contaminants through a network of pores. Ceramic filtration systems exist in a variety of applications. They can be gravity-fed, under-sink, countertop, or in some instances, used for a whole house or even light industrial processes.
Advantages Of Ceramic Filter
Friendly to environment – Unlike membranes that use artificial material, it is made from naturally occurring raw materials, which are easy to dispose of in an environmentally friendly manner. It is highly biodegradable and helps to keep the Earth clean and free of growing landfills.
Prevent bacteria recontamination – The silver incorporated in the ceramic releases small quantities of positively charged ions to destroy microorganisms, inhibit enzyme growth, kill bacteria and prevent recontamination. It guards the filter against bacteria growth whenever there is a chance that the water trapped in the outlet tap is re-contaminated.
What Are Ceramic Filters Used For?
Ceramic filters can be used in under-sink installations, other point-of-use applications, or as portable filters you can take on camping trips or elsewhere. The most common application for ceramic water filters is point-of-use drinking water. Because of its 0.5 micron filtration, simple upkeep, and low cost, a ceramic filter makes an excellent countertop or under-sink filter in households. The gravity-fed filters can provide you with clean water in your kitchen and be taken on hiking and camping trips. If installed with the proper cartridge, you can pour stream water into the filter and make it drinkable. Ceramic filters are also ideal for anywhere where space is limited, like an apartment or RV. A double open-ended ceramic filter can be inserted into any standard 10-inch water filter housing and used in conjunction with other filters, like a sediment filter or anti-scale filter.
