While specific product performance standards have not yet been developed for pharmaceuticals, many point-of-use technologies have proven effective for some of these emerging contaminants. Nano-filtration and reverse osmosis systems removed drugs tested by the Colorado School of Mines at full-scale facilities in Arizona and California. Activated carbon, distillation, ozonation, and advanced oxidization have likewise shown promise in removing many of these contaminants. Individual manufacturers can also test products for specific pharmaceuticals if they choose. (SOURCE: WQA)

MATRIKX + CTO®/2 filters are the most widely used carbon block devices
in the world and provide previously unattainable performance at the lowest
price point. MATRIKX + CTO®/2 filters simultaneously remove chlorine taste
and odor and organic chemicals that contribute to taste and odor while
providing the particulate filtration and dirt-holding capacity of an efficient
5 ìm nominal sediment filter. These filters are optimized for applications
where they perform the role of both a sediment and activated carbon filter.
The extrusion process allows the production of a carbon block with more
carbon, but a lower pressure drop. This enables a MATRIKX + CTO®/2 filter
to deliver extended life while removing sediment, chlorine taste and odor
and organic contaminants from water, aqueous solutions or suspensions.
The MATRIKX + CTO®/2 is also widely used in filtering organic solvents.
The MATRIKX + CTO®/2 is ideal for use in residential and commercial
water purification systems, food service, pre- and post-RO systems.
MATRIKX + CTO®/2 or GAC?
The MATRIKX + CTO®/2 is manufactured from high purity acid-washed
activated carbon. Its dirt-holding capacity and the absence of carbon fines
makes the MATRIKX + CTO®/2 the filter of choice. A superior carbon block,
MATRIKX + CTO®/2 combines both high performance and integrity with an
exceptional cost-to-performance value. As a result, MATRIKX + CTO®/2
virtually renders GAC filters obsolete by comparison.
MATRIKX +CTO®/2 Extruded Activated Carbon Block Filter is the most widely used carbon block filter in the world!
Class 1 Turbidity Reduction > 98% @ 10 Microns
Outstanding Chlorine, Taste and Odor Reduction
MATRIKX +CTO®/2 is a powerful, multifunctional filter cartridge for residential and commercial water purification systems. Ideal for Reverse Osmosis pre and post filtration.
Chemical Adsorption:
MATRIKX +CTO®/2 filters offer high levels of chemical reduction in potable drinking water, including chlorine and other compounds that contribute to taste and odor. +CTO®/2 is widely used for filtering organic solvents.
Improves taste, eliminates odors, removes color
Made in the U.S.A.
Competitively priced compared to Granular Activated Carbon Filters.
