What is AFM?

AFM is an inert, amorphous aluminosilicate (glass) manufactured by up-cycling post-consumer green and brown glass bottles.

AFM Activated Filter Media is verified to at least double the performance of sand filters without the need for additional investments in infrastructure. AFM? is used for swimming pools, aquaria and aquaculture as well as water treatment applications - for treatment of various sources of water such as ground water, surface water, seawater and waste water.

Dryden Aqua has developed AFM? ng to remove organics and mi- croplastics from the water. Any non polar chemical will be more dif- ficult to dissolve into water and it will tend to float like oil, or be ad- sorbed on to a non polar hydrophobic surface.

Two different types of AFM? are produced in our factories: AFM's (standard) and AFMng (next generation).

Both products are exposed to a unique 3-step activation process to become self-sterilising and to acquire superior filtration properties. During the activation, the structure and the chemistry of the glass is modified.

Organic matters are the precursor for the formation of Trihalometh- anes (THMs), including chloroform. Thanks to its large hydrophobic area and highly mesopourous structure, AFM? ng can filter much finer particles and approximately 50% more organic substances than sand. High filtration performance means less disinfectants are used, resulting in healthier water and better air quality at lower costs
