Sin embargo, existen los que eliminan mercurio, plomo y otro tipo de sustancias. Los Activated carbon filters: have two varieties: Activated carbon blocks: activated carbon blocks, which are usually more efficient, or granulated activated carbon. In addition, they are often used as a complement to other devices providing extra filtration. It is recommended to use them together with other technologies specialised in the elimination of viruses and bacteria.

Reverse osmosis filters:

Suele ser el complemento perfecto para los filtros de carbón activado. Los Reverse osmosis filters: while they help to provide better quality water, they are often resource-intensive filters that can waste large amounts of water. For this reason it is advisable to choose one with high quality membranes and use it only when using water for drinking or cooking.

Ultraviolet light filters:

Through a light of ultraviolet rays, this filter works through the water and in this way manages to eliminate many of the microorganisms and bacteria. However, it is not useful if the aim is to remove solid particles or other substances that are pollutants. For this reason it is recommended to use it as a complementary device to other filters.

Ozone filters:

They work through a system that gives you a chemical water treatment, this transforms the oxygen molecules in the water, causing the water to oxidise. This causes the action of viruses and bacteria to be stopped, becoming a very useful type of filter for eradicating all types of microorganisms, viruses and bacteria. However, the ozone filter is not effective in eliminating the chemical elements that the water has and that can be harmful.

Ceramic filters:

This method of water filtration works by a ceramic device that is easily applied to any filter, the water is a source of energy, retaining those particles in the water that can be harmful to health. It helps to eliminate microorganisms and some particles, but it does not serve to eliminate the chemical components of the water.
