Argonide Corporation United States

The argonide family of pleated filter cartridges is designed to satisfy the most difficult needs in water treatment. Nanoceram is a highly electropositive filter media that rapidly adsorbs particles, no matter how small. The media has a high capacity for particles as large as tens of microns or as small as a few nanometers. Such is the nature of electropositive attraction that each nanoceram filter cartridge rating of 0. 1 microns. This is a rating typically associated with ultraporous membranes. Yet nanoceram filters have flow rates that are hundreds of times greater than such membranes. When nanoceram media is assembled into a pleated cartridge, the nanoceram filter can hold up to 3 times the weight of the media itself in particulate. And with an effective operating range of ph 5-10, in water temperatures of 39-122 degrees f (4-50 degrees c) and in the presence of dissolved salts-the nanoceram filter is the right choice in virtually any application relying on ultrapure water. Some of the nanoceram advantages include: 1. Sdi (silt density index) levels that can average 0. 5; 2. Very high flow rates with low pressure-drop; 3. Extraordinary dirt holding capacity (dhc) -up to 3 times the weight of the media alone which is contained in a filter cartridge; 4. Very high efficiency across a broad spectrum of particle sizes; 5. Appropriate as drop-in replacements to existing filter cartridges in five (5) standard sizes These attributes help to position nanoceram as a pre-filter for R. o. , ultraviolet and ozone systems. Additionally, the nanoceram filters improve the efficiency of disinfection systems such as UV, ozone and chlorination by effectively reducing the organic loads to the extent that all these systems are able to operate at peak efficiency for greater lengths of time. Applications Primary filtration in lieu of ultraporous and microporous membranes and for prefiltration in other systems including reverse osmosis (R. o. ) , ultraviolet (UV) , ultrafiltration, microfiltration, ozonation and chlorination. Markets include: food, beverage & bottled water; pharmaceutical & biomedical; cosmetics & personal care; microelectronics; power generation; machining (including EDM) ; pool & spa; and potable water for: 1. Municipal 2. Point-of-entry 3. Point-of-use The nanoceram pleated cartridge is far more than simply a sediment cartridge. It is proving to be an efficient and cost-effective alternative to membranes. Argonide has been recognized by nasa, the u. S. air force, the department of energy, space technology hall of fame, E. P. a. , and the ciencia corporation (prime contractor to dtra-defense threat reduction agency) . We are actively pursuing sales opportunities and select distributors throughout the world.
