NanoCeram-PB™ Series
NanoCeram’s Electropositive Media + Carbon Block Pleated Filter Cartridges
Features and Benefits
Pleated filter cartridges with a carbon block centercore combine high efficiency particulate filtration plus the carbon block for long-lasting chlorine adsorption. NanoCeram-PB™ is a further advancement in Argonide’s series of filters and is a major breakthrough in activated carbon filtration. The addition of a carbon block centercore to a NanoCeram electropositive filter provides a greater chlorine adsorption curve than a typical carbon block cartridge.
NanoCeram’s unique particle adsorption technology provides superior protection to the carbon block and delivers long-lasting and freedom from premature fouling that typically impacts carbon blocks. The line of NanoCeram-PB cartridges offers a unique combination of efficiency & capacity for both particulate and chemical adsorption and soluble contaminants such as soluble organics and chlorine. Their best use is in those applications where a combination of fouling-resistant soluble contaminant removal and particulate reduction is desired. |

Applications
- Waste Water - VOC’s, disinfection by-products (DBP’s), trace toxic organics (i.e., organic pesticides, endocrine disruptors, soluble & particulate dyes, etc.)
- POE & POU - Residual chlorine, toxic organic pollutants and particulate
- Polishing Filter - downstream of large granular carbon beds, coagulation processes, and filtration water purification systems
- Removal of particulate sorbents downstream of filter beds (e.g., arsenic sorbents or IX resins)
- Prefilter for protecting RO membranes for both fresh water and sea water (reduces chlorine that can damage membranes as well as sub-micron particles that tend to foul RO membranes)
- Iron removal in cooling towers & chill water systems
- Chemical-Biological Filters - protection against terrorist contamination of water supplies
