FILTRATION MEDIA : EC-100®

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

EC-100 is a granular, organically modified clay filtration medium for water treatment systems. A blend of bentonite and anthracite treated with a quaternary amine, EC-100 removes mechanically emulsified oil and grease, large molecular weight chlorinated hydrocarbons and heavy metals.

EC-100 used as a pre-treatment to liquid carbon filtration systems can provide longer run times than with carbon alone and therefore decreased operational costs.
