Activated Alumina for Water Treatment

Activated Alumina for Water Treatment

Activated Alumina Ball
The product is a white, spherical porous material with the property of non-toxic, odorless, insoluble in water and ethanol. The particle size is uniform, the surface is smooth, the mechanical is strength , the ability of moisture absorption is strong and the ball is not split after absorbing water.

Product Description

High-Capacity Activated Alumina for Water Treatment (γ-Al2O3)

Specialized adsorbent media engineered for high-efficiency Fluoride (F-), Arsenic (AsV/AsIII), and Heavy Metal removal from drinking water, municipal supplies, and industrial wastewater.

Fluoride Removal: ≥ 2.5 mg/g      Arsenic Removal: High Selectivity      Particle Sizes: 1-2mm, 2-3mm, 3-5mm,4-6mm,5-8mm

Activated Alumina for Water Treatment

Spherical activated alumina granules with high specific surface area and macro-porous structure for rapid ionic adsorption.

Key Advantages in Water Purification

  • Superior Fluoride & Arsenic Affinity: Specifically tailored pore-size distribution for maximum anion exchange capacity, reducing drinking water fluoride levels to below WHO limits (<1.5 mg/L).
  • High Structural Stability & Low Attrition: Exceptional crushing strength ensures no structural breakdown or fine generation during high-flow bed backwashing.
  • Excellent Regeneration Efficiency: Easily reactivated using dilute Aluminum Sulfate (Al2(SO4)3) or Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) solutions for long-term economical operation.
  • Safe & Drinking Water Compliant: Low chemical leaching rates, fully suitable for municipal potability filters and point-of-entry (POE) systems.
