Sorbent granule with 100x magnification
What functions does each component of the sorbent perform?
Silicon dioxide carries a negative charge. Carbon is activated and oxidized, carrying a positive charge.
Together they form dipoles. A network of silicon and carbon nanoparticles is an insurmountable obstacle for elements that are related to them.
Thus, silicon dioxide attracts heavy metals, iron. Carbon - petroleum products, fulfo-, humic acids, organic matter.
The entire surface of the sorbent is covered with silver nanocysts. Silver traps active chlorine and bacteria.
