What are Nitrate Removal
filters.
Industrial Water Equipment
Limited provide our customers with both
of the Nitrate removal processes available,
The first being a removal process by ion
exchange and the other process is to remove
the Nitrates via Reverse osmosis technology.
The most cost effective treatment is ion
exchange but in some cases such as applications
where other contaminants have to be removed
reverse osmosis water filters can be used.
Using our ion exchange process, Nitrate
rich water passes through a grp vessel containing
a nitrate selective resin similar to water
softening resin.
This Nitrate selective resin
is manufactured specifically to remove Sulphates
and nitrates out of feed waters. The sulphates
and nitrates are then removed by washing
the resin with a salt solution. This process
is automatic and referred to as the regeneration
cycle. The Nitrates and sulphates are then
washed to drain leaving the resin free to
begin the removal process again.
How do I know if I
have Nitrates in my water.
Nitrates are tastless, odourless
and colourless,you cannot detect nitrates
unless your water is professionally analyzed.
If you drink water from a private well or
water supply it is highly recommended that
you have a full nitrate water test.
What are Nitrates.
Nitrates are usually found
in all water supplies that are around areas
where farmers use fertilizers.
The Nitrates leach through
the soil and into the water table.
What are the effects

if the nitrate rich water is drunk by
infants.
