What Does KDF-55 Adsorb?

Comprehensive Contaminant Removal

• Eliminates chlorine, pesticides, and organic compounds

• Removes rust, unpleasant tastes, and odors

• Effectively reduces soluble heavy metals 
  Pb²⁺ – Lead ion (divalent lead, commonly from plumbing corrosion)
  Cd²⁺ – Cadmium ion (toxic heavy metal, often industrial discharge)
  Cr⁶⁺ – Hexavalent chromium ion (carcinogenic, from industrial waste)
  As³⁺ – Arsenite ion (trivalent arsenic, more toxic than As⁵⁺)
  Hg²⁺ – Mercuric ion (divalent mercury, highly toxic)
  Mn²⁺ – Manganese ion (causes staining and metallic taste)
  Ni²⁺ – Nickel ion (allergenic, from industrial runoff)
  Al³⁺ – Aluminum ion (linked to turbidity and pipe corrosion)
  Fe³⁺ – Ferric ion (trivalent iron, causes rust-colored water)

• Targets hydrogen sulfide and calcium deposits

Microbial Control

• Inhibits algae and fungal growth

• Helps control bacterial proliferation

System Optimization

• Ideal as a pre-filter for reverse osmosis, deionization, and ion exchange systems

• Extends the lifespan of subsequent filtration stages by reducing contaminant load
