2. PURPOSE AND Available Methods
Eutrophication
Biological nitrification (waste)
Anaerobic Oxidation (tanks)
Chlorination (8:1 ratio)
LiquiCel Membranes (Consumable)

3. Benefits of Ion Exchange
Zero biological waste
Operates in cooler climates
Rechargeable
Modified for targeted removal
Drawback: Water Hardness

4. Preliminary Results

5. Fabrication Retest the filter to see if a drop in performance occurs
Clean particle of impurities
Step 1
Impregnate with metal precursor at high temperatures
Step 2
Regenerate using salt solution
Retest the filter to see if a drop in performance occurs

7. Conclusions
This material serves as a viable alternative to nitrification due to its ability to be easily regenerated
Upkeep and startup costs are low compared to traditional methods
Can be modified to target specific contaminants
Futher Research: Refine the modification process and regeneration process
