Our proven environmentally low impact state of the art contained Chitosan Enhanced Sand Filtration systems (CESF) are capable of applying the latest enhanced treatment applications using one of the safest biodegradable naturally occurring flocculants in the form of Chitosan.
What is Chitosan?
Chitosan is a substance derived from the shells of crab, and other crustaceans. Given it’s low potential for toxicity and Chitosan’s abundance in nature being 100% biodegradable it does not harm people, pets, wildlife or the environment.
Chitosan is a perfect solution for use in causing fine sediment particles to bind together trapping heavy metals and oils as well. It is an integral part of engineering our on-site water filtration process.
This safe material is even famously used in the brewing of beer, creation of cheese and clarification of fine wine.
