IRON IN WATER HAS MANY IRRITATING EFFECTS. FOR EXAMPLE:
(1) IT STAINS THE CLOTHES AS WELL AS THE APPLIANCES
(2) WATER TASTES BITTER AND SO DOES THE FOOD PREPARED USING THIS WATER
(3) DAMAGES PLUMBING & APPLIANCES
(4) THIS WATER DRIES AND IRRITATES THE SKIN.DAMAGES PLUMBING & APPLIANCES
(5) THIS WATER STAINS EVERYTHING ORANGE

IRON ALSO OXIDISES iON-EXCHANGE RESINS IRREVERSIBLY. IT IS ALSO NOT ACCEPTABLE TO RO MEMBRANES.
DEPENDING UPON THE WATER CHEMISTRY , IRON CAN BE EFFECTIVELY REDUCED BY FOLLOWING TECHNOLOGIES:
1. MnO2
2. BIRM MEDIA
3. RESIN BASED IRON REMOVAL
4. AERATION / OXIDATION / FILTRATION
5. BY MEMBRANE PROCESS OF UF AND NF
