Many consumers always hear the word "KDF" when purchasing water treatment products, and many people do not understand it. What exactly is KDF, why should its application be promoted, and is it safe? Today, the editor will introduce you to KDF filter material and see what kind of benefits it has!
What exactly is KDF that is often heard in water treatment products?
The "KDF" we usually hear is actually a type of filter material in water purification equipment. This copper-zinc filter material patented by KDF Water Treatment Company is a high-purity copper/zinc filter material. Alloy, through electrochemical oxidation-reduction (electron transfer) reaction, can effectively reduce or remove chlorine and heavy metals in water, and inhibit the growth and reproduction of microorganisms in water. It is currently an ideal water treatment method.
What are the benefits of using KDF for water pretreatment?
Using KDF for water pretreatment is a simple and low-cost method. It protects expensive and fragile water treatment components from chlorine, microorganisms, and scaling. Compared with microfiltration, ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis membrane, ion exchange resin, and granular activated carbon, KDF has more advantages in improving water treatment efficiency and maintaining high efficiency, and consumes less. Today, KDF has been widely used internationally, from kitchen faucets to industrial cooling water treatment.
1. Reduce mineral scaling
KDF treatment medium can prevent the formation and accumulation of mineral hard scale, mainly preventing the crystallization of calcium carbonate in the form of calcite.
2． Reduce suspended solids
KDF55 filter media can effectively remove particles as small as 50μm in diameter, preventing them from entering the human body.
3. Remove the oxidant (residual chlorine) from the water
The water in Shanghai always smells of bleach because it contains residual chlorine, which will generate a potential carcinogen - trichlorine Methane can also cause many diseases in the human body. KDF55 can effectively remove residual chlorine and other oxidants in water.
4. Inhibit the reproduction of microorganisms and control the growth of microorganisms
5. Remove heavy metals and hydrogen sulfide
In life, what are the general applications of KDF? ?
Suitable for chlorine-treated municipal tap water. Including residents, businesses, schools, public utilities and light industry, construction sites and factories where tap water is used.
Is KDF safe? Is it harmful to human body?
KDF Water Treatment Company has a history of 22 years and is in a leading position in the water treatment industry. KDF’s patented copper and zinc filter materials are widely used in various industrial production links of water treatment and can be recycled , without any additives, can be safely used in hospitals, hotels and various public utility water treatment equipment.
KDF55 treatment media meets the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Federal Drug Administration (FDA), Water Quality Association (WQA), and National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) guidelines for maximum zinc and copper levels in drinking water. Standard requirements, such as KDF treatment media, can remove chlorine at a concentration of 10 ppm in water, but still meet the EPA's regulations on the maximum allowable zinc content in drinking water. Therefore, it can be applied with confidence.
