Water Purification

Water Purification

Water sources such as lakes and rivers may contain contaminants unsuitable for drinking. Tap water may also contain residual free chlorine, odors, and trace amounts of trihalomethanes. Kuraray's activated carbon is used in water treatment plants and household water purifiers to remove these impurities and organic substances, supporting the supply of safe and great-tasting water.
