Ceramic water filter

Template:B. Mommen Ceramic water filters are a type of water filter, typically used in a household, which purify water by passing the water through pores in ceramic. The pores of the Ceramic are smaller than the bacteria or virus, in this way they can not pass the filter and will remain in the filter as residue. The water molecules, which are smaller can pass the filter will be free of bacteria and viruses. Some ceramic filters (like ceramic candle filters) also use active carbon. The carbon absorbs suspended solutions such as chlorine. Filters with active carbon need to be replaced periodically because the carbon is no longer active. Filters without active carbon can be used till they are clogged up and the outflow is very low (all pores are full with contamination like a coffee filter). When the filter gets clogged up, they should be cleaned by using clean water flowing in a reverse direction. In this process the residue will be cleared from the filter and the pores are open again. The filter can be used again till it is clogged up and the same process should be repeated.

 

Low priced Clay pot filter can be used on developing countries because of their low price and highly effectiveness against bacteria and viruses. The technology is already there, but the implementation is still in it¡¯s infancy stage, with several NGO¡¯s supporting the implementation. water filter,water filters,Reverse osmosis water filter | Undersink water filter
