Arsenic Removal with GFH® Media

GFH ferric-based media is used in an adsorption process to remove arsenic and other heavy metals from treated wastewater and drinking water supplies. Pre-oxidation is not required for arsenic removal applications. Once the media has exhausted its adsorption capacity, it is removed from the vessel and replaced with new media. The simplicity of this process with single use media is very attractive for small installations and wellhead applications especially where no treatment currently exists.

GFH® media-based system for arsenic removal provides you:

Simplified performance

Consistent high quality treatment

Access to our media change out specialists
