Water filters remove undesirable particles, chemicals, and microorganisms from water by way of a semipermeable barrier, adsorption, or biological processes. They’re made of densely packed synthetic or natural fibers that trap suspended particles, materials that block microbes or adsorb unwanted chemicals, or substances that cause a chemical change, such as acid neutralization. For most residential, commercial, and industrial applications, water filters are manufactured in the form of replaceable cartridges that fit inside permanent housings. Filtration systems normally consist of a series of two or more types of filters, each designed to take away different contaminants. The performance of filters is measured by the minimum particle size that may be blocked, the percentage of particles or microorganisms that are removed, the downstream concentration of unwanted chemicals, the maximum go with the flow rate, and the amount of water that may be filtered before the filter will have to be replaced. Water filters are used in a variety of applications, including drinking water purification, swimming pools, industrial processes, and irrigation, among others.
