Adsorption
Technology Removes More Than 95 Percent of Arsenic at EPA Demonstration
Site
According to an international consulting firm, the state
of Michigan has more naturally occurring arsenic than anywhere
else in the United States. And the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) estimates that as many as 376,000 Michigan citizens
in 176 communities may be drinking water with arsenic levels
higher than the new EPA standard of 10 parts per billion.
Results reported from an EPA demonstration site in Brown
City, Mich. hold great promise for citizens of the state—and
for the hope of finding a cost-effective solution to arsenic
in small water systems throughout the country.

arsenic technology.
