Water Treatment Solutions for water contamination challenges
Population growth, industrial demand for water, pollution as well as climate change are putting increasing stress on fresh water resources. Today, 2.1 billion people do not have access to a safely managed drinking water supply and only 20% of waste water is collected and treated. Trends for water treatment, reuse and recycling have become major stakes for all type of water including potable, storm, agricultural and industrial uses. New challenges are also emerging, linked to new pollutants and zero liquid discharge targets are being adopted worldwide.
Water treatment and recycling have become a major issue for all type of water applications including potable, storm, agricultural, environmental remediation and industrial uses. Common water contaminants that need to be removed are arsenic, fluoride, phosphates and a variety of metals (copper, zinc, lead and selenium).
Life Cycle of Water and Main Challenges
Axens supplies high-performance water treatment adsorbents for potable water, environmental remediation, storm water, industrial and agricultural effluents.
ActiGuard® AA400G
AA400G has been developed in order to remove several contaminants in one-step, in particular arsenic and fluoride with high fluoride adsorption capacity ranging from 1 to 20mg/g depending on water chemistry.
Simple regeneration of AA400G is also possible making it the industrial standard for fluoride removal.
ActiGuard® AAFS50
Axens developed ActiGuard® AAFS50 to enhance arsenic adsorption capacity versus unprompted activated alumina. The three times greater adsorption capacity extends service life and allows cost effective single use.
ActiGuard® AAFS50 is the practical solution for phosphates removal. It is also used for multiple contaminant removal like fluoride, silica, zinc, copper, lead, and selenium in specific applications.
ActiGuard® R
Arsenic & metals removal from non-potable water.
It is intended for remediation applications including groundwater site clean ups, industrial effluent, and storm water runoff where metals and nutrients are issues.
ActiGuard® F
Neutralized activated alumina, typically applied for non-regenerating fluoride removal, or applications requiring neutral effluent pH.
ActiGuard® 320
Fluoride removal for municipal or water bottling facility. Regenerable or single use for cost-effective treatment of various water sources.
