ARSENICO plus MEDIUM

Field of application: Groundwater contaminated with arsenic from natural deposits or from industrial and agricultural pollution.

Through the natural leaching of arsenic-containing ores, elemental arsenic entered the groundwater. Inorganic arsenic has been proven to be carcinogenic and highly toxic. It is the largest chemical contaminant of drinking water worldwide. Permanent exposure should be avoided at all costs, because the serious health consequences can cause skin abnormalities and lesions, lung diseases, diabetes and impair the development of memory. Children are particularly at risk. AcquaPhi ARSENICO plus has been specially developed to reliably filter arsenic out of drinking water. At the same time, it reduces chlorine, ensures a bacteriostatic effect and eliminates undesirable odours and tastes. odours and flavours.

Scope: Is a disposable filter cartridge with quick-change housing with filtration through an activated carbon block including silver ion technology. Ensures a filtration of 0,5 µm micron. The multiplication of bacteria (bacteriostatic effect) in the filter core is prevented by the silver ions. The compact filter core inside consists of 100% activated carbon from biological coconut shells. coconut shells.

plus Function

Additionally removes organic compounds, as well as odours and tastes in the water. Reduces chlorine, pharmaceutical residues, heavy metals and microplastics.

Possible effects on health 

Arsenic is a natural element that occurs in the earth's crust and is widespread in the air, water and soil. In its inorganic state, it is extremely toxic. Chronic arsenic poisoning can occur with prolonged exposure to inorganic arsenic, which is mainly ingested through drinking water and food. Possible complications include skin blemishes and cancer.
