AQUAPHOR patented Aqualen™ technology for deep water filtration

Aqualen™ – a fibrous ion-exchange chelating sorbent, which is an integral part of the patented mixture for drinking water filters, created and developed by the AQUAPHOR Group exclusively for its household and commercial water filters. Distinctive physical qualities of Aqualen™ include its ability to irreversibly bind heavy metals ions like lead, iron, mercury and radioactive isotopes. The word “chelate” means “a claw”. In their chemical structure the Aqualen™ functional groups resemble the claws. The Aqualen™ “claws” snatch heavy metal ions out of the water and hold them in a death grip. Another key Aqualen™ quality is to evenly spread the water across the whole mixture, widening the surface contact area by 33 times compared to conventional ion-exchange filters. Large contact area provides deeper water filtration.
