PIONEER® OX features ENPRESS ATOMUS® MD1 inside technology, a proprietary filtration media solution for the water treatment industry specifically designed to simultaneously oxidize and adsorb organic and inorganic contaminants along with heavy metals that could be present in water. This patented and proprietary chemistry creates a unique oxidative media that does not add residuals to the water stream or create harmful disinfectant byproducts. Unlike typical oxidation agents, such as ozone, chlorine, peroxide, citric acid, or bromine, ATOMUS® MD1 is a “solid state” oxidizing agent. Overall system simplification is paramount in the usage of ATOMUS® MD1, eliminating an Airdraw or standard control valve head, the use of salt, or oxidation agents for regeneration.
