PROCEDIMIENTO PARA LA ELIMINACION DE MICROORGANISMOS EN AGUAS POR FILTRACION

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the treatment and purification of water, aimed at eliminating micro-organisms, especially bacteria, but also useful for viruses and protozoa. The method is advantageous compared to current methods as it minimises the appearance of unwanted effects such as the formation of carcinogenic products, for example trihalomethanes or haloacetic acids generated in chlorination treatments or nitrosamines in chloramination treatments. The method is based on the filtration of water through complex materials comprising cationic polymers on clay mineral sheets.
