Severn Trent Services and Bayer AG announced an agreement between the two companies to distribute a proprietary media that removes arsenic from drinking water.
This long-term agreement provides Severn Trent with global distribution rights for Bayer's Bayoxide E33 media. Developed and produced by Bayer, the granular ferric oxide (GFO) media efficiently adsorbs tirvalent arsenite (As III) and pentavalent arsenate (As V) from water sources, and can be used in a range of treatment applications from large-scale municipal facilities to rural well sites to in-the-home, point-of-use systems.
