PURIFIcation & filtration
A PEEK INSIDE
Ion Exchange and Activated Carbon
Inside the purifier cartridge, non-woven ceramic media fibers
block particulates and provide structure for two technologies:
positively charged ions (i.e. molecular magnets) and powdered
activated carbon. As dirty water is forced through the media,
ion exchange permanently binds pathogens (i.e. virus,
protozoa, bacteria). Activated carbon adsorbs chemicals,
heavy metals, flavors, and odors.
Clean, Safe Drinking Water
Once purified, 24 ounces of water is ready to chug, sip or
store for later. Purified water, anywhere in the world.
dirty WATER
Untreated, contaminated water with pathogens (virus,
bacteria, protozoa), sediment, microplastics, chemicals
and/or heavy metals.
