Municipal Water
Puragen helps water utility companies deliver safe, high-quality drinking water, and treat their wastewater even under challenging conditions.
Puragen’s advanced activated carbon applications remove PFAS, chlorine byproducts, dissolved VOCs and other harmful organic contaminants such as pesticides and pharmaceuticals, making it simple and cost-effective to comply with changing regulations.
Key processes we help with
Puragen helps water treatment facilities comply with strict regulatory standards while ensuring cost-effective, high-performance filtration.
Puragen’s activated carbon solutions support key municipal water purification processes, from contaminant removal to taste and odor improvement, to help water providers maintain efficiency, compliance and sustainability.
Optimised granular and powdered activated carbon solutions effectively remove PFAS, pharmaceuticals and industrial chemicals, preventing these persistent contaminants from reaching the public water supply.
Activated carbon removes chlorine, chloramine and organic compounds that cause unpleasant taste and odors, delivering clean, wholesome, great-tasting drinking water.
Chlorine disinfection can create harmful byproducts like trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs). Puragen’s solutions reduce these carcinogenic compounds, ensuring safer drinking water.
