FilterCor designs and manufactures a diverse and flexible product line of chemically modified and activated clays which incorporate the advantages of both adsorption and ion exchange properties. These proprietary media not only adsorb the hydrocarbon contaminants which are suspended, emulsified and/or dissolved in solution, but they also lock them in, reducing the risk of leaching contaminants during treatment applications. Contaminants are actually removed, unlike bleaching operations in which a colored impurity is chemically changed to a colorless material. FilterCor's surface modified clays are the culmination of the Best Technical Approach (B.T.A.) to problem solving which involves a unique mixture of proprietary processes and materials specifically designed for a broad line of environmental applications directly related to water treatment (feed water, process water, waste water) and water filtration.
