How does ECAR work?

ECAR stands for ElectroChemical Arsenic Remediation. In ECAR, electricity is used to quickly dissolve iron in water. This forms a type of rust that readily binds to arsenic in the water. The rust aggregates, forming larger particles that can be removed from the water through filtration or settling. The water is left iron- and arsenic-free.
