Carbon Block Technology



Multipure Drinking Water Systems utilize Multipure’s innovative and proprietary solid carbon block filter. This solid carbon block filter employs multiple methods to reduce the presence of a wide variety of contaminants in water. Its pre-filter traps dirt, sand, and particles that affect the taste, odor, and clarity of water. Particles too small to be trapped mechanically are then electrokinetically adsorbed to the pre-filter surface. As water passes the pre-filter, the solid carbon block physically traps particles and chemically adsorbs the many different chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, and certain heavy metals that remain in the water. Because the solid carbon block filter is densely compacted, its surface area is maximized and water remains in contact with the filter material for an extended period of time. This extended contact period between the water and the filter ensures a consistently high degree of performance.

Nationally recognized standards established for the drinking water treatment industry confirm that the most effective systems for the removal of both aesthetic and harmful contaminants are those that utilize solid carbon block filters. Multipure is the original developer of solid carbon block technology, and has been the leader and innovator in the water treatment industry since 1970. Multipure, and its remarkable solid carbon block filter, is synonymous with superior quality, exceptional innovation, and intelligent performance.
