Product introduction
Defluoridation agent:
Activated alumina is also widely used to remove fluoride from drinking water. In the US, there are widespread programs to fluoridate drinking water. However, in certain regions, such as the Jaipur region of India, there is enough fluorine in the water to cause fluorosis. Activated alumina filters can easily reduce fluoride levels from .5 ppm to less than .1 ppm. The amount of fluoride leached from the water being filtered depends on how long the water is actually touching the alumina filter media. Basically, the more alumina in the filter, the less fluoride will be in the final, filtered water. Lower temperature water, and lower pH water (acidic water) are filtered more effectively too.

Activated Aluminas are synthetically produced amorphous oxides from aluminum trihydrate. The end product is a beaded material or powder with highly adsorptive capabilities. It is used as a Claus Catalyst in natural gas and refining and can reduce the dewpoint of the air to -40C. Special grades can reduce the dewpoint to less than -100C. With new technology, we can now remove a variety of contaminants from styrene, polyethylene, ethylene, light hydrocarbons and air. Aluminas are very nonreactive adsorbents giving off low heats of adsorption. Surface areas and surface areas can be controlled during manufacturing to allow for custom purification applications.
