ION Exchange

Ion exchange is a reversible chemical reaction where an ion (an atom or molecule that has lost or gained an electron and thus acquired an electrical charge) from solution is exchanged for a similarly charged ion attached to an immobile solid particle.  Global Splash uses specifically tailored chelating fibers that:

• Provide high absorption speed 
• Provide a large surface area for quick absorption at low concentration
• Combined with Quad Barrier™ filtration provides highly effective absorption of heavy metal ions and metalloid ions
