Something revolutionary in portable water treatment
Comparison with Filters
 
A direct comparison is obtained by working out how much pollutants each can remove before their active component needs to be replaced.  A common pollutant in water is clay.  The question is “How much clay can they remove before they must be replaced?”
 
You do not see this figure advertised by the filter companies, because it is very low.   A 400 gm filter cartridge will not remove 400 gm of clay before it clogged up - it would be lucky to remove 5.   Compare that to a 400 gm Research Water plate set, which can remove over 5 kg of clay before it needed replacing.  Good portable filter cartridges boast 0.2 micron particle removal.  The Research Water Clarifiers remove particle sizes down to the .01 micron size (better than ultrafiltration), with the Purifier removing a lot of smaller chemicals as well as, and not worrying about traces of oils or other hydrocarbons.
 
As well as having over 1000 times the weight for weight cleaning power of filters, they can also remove particles 20 times smaller.  And if you suspect there are any chemicals in the water, the Purifier will remove a greater variety of them than almost any filter combination.  What else would you expect from the company that is taking portable water treatment systems into the modern electronics age?
