How to Remove Arsenic from Water (10 Effective Methods)
An anion resin traps arsenic particles and prevents them from passing into your home. In this type of water treatment, the arsenic will be replaced with a non-toxic cation – usually sodium. Once the resin bed has reached capacity, an ion exchange system will flush the bed and remove the arsenic particles in a process called regeneration.
