The filtration of water came to the forefront of the public’s consciousness during the 1854 London outbreak of cholera.

This is just having a barrier that has perforations smaller than what it is that you mean to clean out. This method of filtration eliminates tiny substances that are suspended in the water like dirt, silt, sand, sediment, rust and other un-dissolved elements. As water flows through the media the substances are trapped or inhibited and for practical purposes taken from your water.
Contingent on the quality and/or type of the filtration media, matter as small as 0.5 microns can be stripped from your drinking water. For reference purposes, a micron is equal to 1/25,000 of an inch, the diameter of one thread of your hair is around 100 microns.
An assortment of materials are employed to manufacture mechanical filtration media. Ceramics and an assortment of resins cover the bulk of this type of water filters.
Redox or Oxidation-Reduction Redox is a process in which electrons from one particle are passed on to another. What this means is that where you blend two dissimilar metals you cause an electrochemical process that oxidizes a multitude of chemicals frequently discovered in ground water in addition to our municipal water supplies, consequently stripping them from the water. The heavy metals such as aluminum, cadmium, lead and chromium are stripped by the electrochemical process. Metals such as these are drawn to the filter’s media, much like to a magnet.
