SORBENT FOR REMOVING MICROORGANISMS AND HARMFUL INORGANIC AND ORGANIC IMPURITIES FROM WATER, AND A DEVICE FOR USING THE SAME

摘要

A sorbent for removing microorganisms and inorganic and organic impurities from water is based on activated carbon and ion exchangers, and comprises: activated carbon in the form of activated carbon with hydroxyl anion exchange groups; and ion exchangers in the form of hydrogenous and calcium-based cation exchange agents, and hydrocarbonate or carbonate anion exchange agents. These raw materials are in the following amounts (parts by weight): cation exchange agent (hydrogenous) 0.02-0.09; cation exchange agent (calcium-based) 0.1-0.5; anion exchange agent (hydrocarbonate or carbonate) 0.1-0.5; activated carbon with hydroxyl anion exchange groups 1.0. The water purification device comprises a housing (1) with an inlet (4) and outlet (6). Inside the housing at the outlet (6) end, a unit (7) for stabilizing the outlet flow rate is fitted; the unit consists of a porous layer (8) and a baffle (9). The latter is supported on ledges on the inner face of the housing (1) and is secured with lugs (11). The baffle (9) is covered with the four-component sorbent described above. Water is purified by being allowed to pass through the sorbent layer (12).
