ART CARBON Process
ART CARBON Process
It uses the extraordinary properties of the patented adsorbent ART CARBON, which is based on modified carbon nanotubes uniquely immobilized (attached) to the carrier.
- Eliminates broad-spectrum of contaminants.
- Passive reduction of bacteria and viruses
- Adsorbent regeneration at the place of installation and without removal from the filter
- 10 times faster adsorption kinetics compared to activated carbon
- Pesticides and other agrochemicals
- Drug residues and endocrine disruptors
- Naturally occurring organic substances as precursors for the trihalomethanes formation
- Cyanobacterial toxins
- Microplastics
- Coliform and other gastrointestinal bacteria
- Passive water disinfection - reduces bacteria and viruses

Basic facts about ART CARBON Process technology in brief
Certified in accordance with EN 12873-3
Antimicrobial properties
10x faster kinetics
Extensible filter concept
Lower investment and operating costs by up to 50%
Small built-up area
Low operator requirements
On-site regeneration
For all types of water and contaminants
Rapid adsorption kinetics
ART CARBON adsorbent contains a nanostructured form of carbon, carbon nanotubes, with unique adsorption properties. Unlike granular activated carbon, adsorption occurs on the outer surface of carbon nanotubes, which is easily accessible and therefore the adsorption of pollutants from solution is up to 10 times faster.
See the difference in adsorption rate (kinetics) between ART CARBON adsorbent and granular activated carbon in the video below:
How does it work?
Take a look at the animated process diagram of ART CARBON Process technology. From adsorption through regeneration to re-commissioning.
Antimicrobial and antiviral properties
ART CARBON adsorption material has passive antimicrobial effects. Therefore, It can reduce the number of microorganisms in water without the use of chemicals. ART CARBON is also able to remove rotavirus A particles from water.
Regenerate
This is what the regenerate with the chemicals removed from the drinking water treatment plant like looks.
