Aquavow Copper-Zinc Filtration Media: Advanced "Water Gold" Technology

Composition of Copper Zinc Filtration Media

Aquavow's Copper-Zinc (CUZN) Filtration Media represents a breakthrough in water treatment technology. This high-purity copper-zinc alloy medium utilizes electrochemical redox reactions to actively transform contaminants, delivering exceptional purification performance. Known as "water gold" for its superior efficiency and value, it's becoming the preferred choice for advanced water filtration systems worldwide.

Water Filtration Systems with CUZN Media

CUZN media is widely used in different water media filter applications, including:

• Whole house filtration systems

• Under-counter and countertop drinking water systems

• Shower and bath filters

• Commercial and industrial-grade water purification systems

By incorporating this media for water filtration into filter cartridges, these systems significantly enhance water quality for different scenarios.

Common Materials Combined with CUZN Media

In water treatment systems, Copper Zinc Alloy Media is typically paired with other filtration media to create multi-layer filter cartridges for more comprehensive purification:

• Activated carbon: Removes organic compounds, chlorine by-products, and odors.

• Aquavow KDF055 water filter media: Specialized in chlorine, iron removal media, and some heavy metals.

• Ion exchange resins: Reduces hardness.

• Activated alumina: Effective for fluoride and arsenic removal.

This combination ensures complementary strengths, delivering high efficiency and longer-lasting results.

Why It’s Called “Water Gold”

Copper Zinc Filtration Media is nicknamed “water gold” for three reasons:

• High efficiency – outstanding contaminant removal.

• High value – lasts far longer than carbon-only filters, with lower maintenance costs.

• Premium use – commonly found in advanced media for water filtration systems.

Purification Effects & Advantages

1. Contaminant Removal

• Chlorine: up to 99% removal efficiency

• Heavy metals: lead, mercury, cadmium

• Organic pollutants: pesticides, herbicides, VOCs

2. Bacteria Control

• Creates a bacteriostatic environment, making it an ideal bacteria removal media.

3. Protects Other Media

• Extends the life of activated carbon, preventing bacterial fouling.

Application Scenarios

• Residential: whole house filters, drinking water systems, shower filters

• Commercial: restaurants, healthcare facilities, laboratories

• Industrial: boiler feedwater, cooling systems, process water

Comparison with Other Filtration Media

• CUZN filter media vs Activated Carbon: Carbon excels at adsorption, while CUZN filter media is more effective for chlorine and heavy metals; together they provide better performance.

• CUZN filter media vs RO Membranes: RO removes almost all dissolved solids but is costly and requires high maintenance; CUZN filter media is more eco-friendly and requires no electricity.

• CUZN filter media vs UV Sterilization: UV only kills bacteria but does not remove chemicals; CUZN filter media offers both physical and chemical purification.

Limitations & Considerations

• Higher cost – mainly used in premium products.

• Limited performance when used alone; best combined with other filtration media.

• Not suitable as the sole solution in severely contaminated water sources.

Trends & Future Development

• Increasing adoption of CUZN in high-end residential water systems.

• Integration with multi-stage filtration technologies (e.g., CUZN filter media+ RO + activated carbon).

• Sustainability: Copper zinc alloy media is recyclable and environmentally friendly.

Conclusion: Aquavow’s Copper Zinc Filtration Media is a cutting-edge media for water filtration, delivering powerful iron removal media and bacteria removal media performance while being durable and eco-friendly. Whether in residential, commercial, or industrial applications, CUZN provides safe, high-quality water—earning its reputation as the true “water gold.”
