The present invention is directed to a microporous filter medium treated with a microbiological interception enhancing agent comprising a cationic chemical having a medium to high charge density and a molecular weight greater than about 5000 Daltons, adsorbed on at least a portion of the microporous structure, and a biologically active metal in direct proximity to the cationic chemical and also on at least a portion of the microporous structure, wherein the flow of fluid through the filter medium decreases in response to an amount of polyanionic acids present in an influent. Robust microbiological interception is still maintained due to the extended empty bed contact time as a result of the diminished flow rate.
本发明涉及一种用微
生物拦截增强剂处理过的微孔过滤介质,该增强剂包括一种阳离子
化学物质,其电荷密度为中到高,分子量大于约 5000 道尔顿,吸附在微孔结构的至少一部分上,以及一种
生物活性
金属,该
金属直接靠近阳离子
化学物质,并且也吸附在微孔结构的至少一部分上,其中流经过滤介质的流体流量随进
水中存在的聚阴离子酸的量而减少。由于流速降低,空床接触时间延长,因此仍能保持强大的微
生物拦截能力。
