Water purification with materials PANION®

The main areas of application of fibrous ion exchangers PANION® for water purification
- Removal of ions of iron and heavy metals: lead, cadmium, manganese, mercury, cuprum, nickel and others, while maintaining its natural ionic composition;
- Water softening;
- Selective removal of difficult-to-remove toxic components (arsenic, silver etc.)
Why PANION®
PANION® are identical in chemical nature to traditional granular ion exchangers, but due to their fibrous structure they purify water 10–100 times faster due to unique kinetic properties.
Chemical nature of materials PANION® is identic to nature of traditional granular ion exchangers, but thanks to fibrous structure of materials PANION® they purify water 10-100 times as fast due to unique kinetic properties.
Textile forms
Fibrous ion exchangers PANION® are produced in different textile forms, which can be used in water purification plants of different construction and operating principle.
The best choice
The qualitative and quantitative composition of water, the target components to be removed, and the requirements for purification efficiency are individual and depend on the region, the type of water being purified and other factors. The wide range of materials PANION® allows you to choose a solution for almost any water purification task.
