Aries Arsenic Removal Cartridges, 4.5" x 20", Blue, (Case of 4) with ResinTech ® ASM-10-HP (ANSI / NSF 61 Certified)

Arsenic Removal Cartridges
Arsenic reduction is achieved by utilizing the advanced media technology of ResinTech® ASM-10-HP resin. This Arsenic selective media has unsurpassed capacity and is effective over the entire pH range of potable water. ResinTech®ASM-10-HP is a strongly basic hybrid anion exchange resin, specially formulated to selectively remove arsenic.*

About Arsenic
Arsenic occurs naturally in soil and bedrock in many parts of the United States. Arsenic has no smell, taste, or color when dissolved in water, even in high concentrations, and therefore only laboratory analysis can determine the presence and concentration of arsenic in water. Arsenic is a potential concern to those who live in areas; with high natural deposits of arsenic, receive runoff from orchards, or from glass and electronic production waste. The health effects of arsenic depend on its chemical form, how much is consumed, and for how long. Long-term exposure to arsenic can cause a number of harmful effects on the human body.

* Although ResinTech® ASM-10-HP has modest removal of Arsenite (As3), it is suggested to use additional oxidation methods such as pre-chlorination to convert to Arsenate (As5).

ResinTech ASM-10-HP is a chloride form arsenic selective hybrid anion exchange resin. ASM-10-HP has hydrated iron oxide monoatomically dispersed throughout the polymer. It captures arsenate first by ion exchange and then by absorption into the iron oxide hybrid. ResinTech ASM-10-HP is intended for arsenic removal from potable water, and can also be used as an ion exchanger for removal of uranium and other trace level contaminants.
