ZONE Alkaline Particles mixed with Activated Carbon Block

I. Why Are Water Filtration Media the First Line of Defense for Healthy Drinking Water?

With accelerated industrialization, nearly 2 billion people globally face drinking water safety challenges (WHO data). As the core material of filtration systems, water filtration media directly determine purification efficacy. Common media like activated carbon, KDF alloy, and ion-exchange resins remove contaminants through adsorption, catalysis, and ion exchange. Activated carbon, with its high porosity (surface area up to 1,000–2,500 m²/g), is the most widely used material. However, traditional activated carbon faces limitations such as acidic pH output and single-dimensional filtration.

II. Technological Breakthrough: Alkaline Particles mixed with Activated Carbon Block with Triple-Action Purification

ZONE’s Alkaline Particles mixed with Activated Carbon Block integrates three advanced technologies through proprietary engineering:

1. Natural Alkaline Mineral Fusion: Tourmaline and maifanite particles are nano-coated into the carbon block, steadily releasing calcium/magnesium/potassium ions to maintain a pH of 7.5–8.5.

2. Multi-Stage Activated Carbon Matrix: Combines coconut-shell carbon (chlorine removal), coal-based carbon (VOCs interception), and graphene-enhanced carbon (heavy metal targeting) for layered filtration.

3. Antimicrobial Shield: Silver-ion technology inhibits bacterial growth by >99.7% (third-party test report: OWZ-ACB2023).

Lab results show ≥99.5% removal of lead/mercury, 40% higher chlorine clearance than conventional blocks, and a lifespan extended to 6–8 months (vs. 4–6 months for standard products).

III. Scenario-Based Solutions: Tailoring Technology to Real-World Needs

ZONE provides customized configurations for diverse water conditions:

- Municipal Tap Water: Combine pre-filter PP cotton + alkaline carbon block + post-filter ultrafiltration membrane to address secondary pollution and metal leaching from aging pipes.

- High-Hardness Groundwater: Pair alkaline carbon blocks with scale-inhibition media for simultaneous pH balancing and descaling.

- Commercial Water Dispensers: Use 20-inch high-flow carbon blocks with smart flushing for consistent output.

IV. Scientific Backing for Healthy Hydration

1. Research in Sports Applications

Studies by the Korea Institute of Sport Science show that drinking mildly alkaline water treated by this carbon block reduces post-exercise lactic acid concentration by 23% and increases water retention by 16.7%. The NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers have integrated similar technology into their training facility’s direct-drinking water system, validating the practical value of alkaline water in enhancing athletic performance.

2. Supplementary Role in Chronic Disease Management

Clinical research from the University of North Carolina indicates that long-term consumption of mildly alkaline water reduces the incidence of acid reflux by 37% and significantly improves bone density in early-stage osteoporosis patients. Note: Individuals with kidney disease should consult a physician before use.
