HTI products employ a
proprietary membrane filter that is hydrophilic (attracts
water), allows water to pass through, yet blocks very
small contaminants due to the tight construction of the
membrane.
Water is driven across the membrane, not by hydraulic pressure,
but by osmotic pressure created by a standard sport drink
powder on the clean side of the membrane.
Because HTI systems use osmotic pressure
instead of hydraulic pressure, our products do not have
the clogging or fouling problems inherent to other filtration
systems. Even highly turbid water, such as those found
in the foulest ditch, will not clog HTI products (tested
to 800 ntu). |
