Water Treatment

The technical performance of a water purification technology is dependent on a multitude of factors, such as capacity of pollutants removal, efficiency, operating flux, running and capital costs, consumed energy and operating pressure as well as water recovery efficiency. The interplay between all these factors and how these drive a modern and sustainable approach to water purification have been tackled comprehensively in scientific literature (Chem. Soc. Rev., 2019, 48, 463).

A widely diffused approach to assess a technology performance on removal of contaminants is to comply with certifications, which are standardized protocols evaluating the functioning of a technology. A common and widely accepted certification for heavy metal ions, for example, is the NSF 53, but other certifications also exist such as Comité Européen de Normalisation (CEN) standards, DIN/EN, DVGW..etc.

BluAct Technologies, obviously complies with all these certifications and largely meets NSF 53 standards in the greatest majority of heavy metals, such as Arsenic (III and V forms), Lead, Mercury, etc.
