Technology Overview
Core Technology
Seldon has developed a new nanostructured nonwoven material : “nanomesh™” that is produced in a scalable reel to reel process. Our filtration products are built upon the amazing material properties of the carbon nanotube which include: large surface area, great strength, light weight, high electrical conductivity, rapid heat transport. This unique form of carbon lends itself to processing that transforms the material into an adsorptive media attracting contaminants to its surface.
Seldon’s new fused nanomesh material forms the basis for safe, tested and proven products in three major fluid filtration applications: ground water, fuel and air purification.
Seldon's water cleaning products have the following attributes:
- Provide reliably clean water, free of bacteria & virus
- No water is wasted, all the water flowing through our products is cleaned, a real advantage in a time of water shortage
- High flow rates with low resistance:
- Immediately clean drinking water, no waiting, effectively removes all microorganisms (virus, bacteria, cysts, spores) in water
- Do not require contact time, high pressure, chemicals, power, heat or ultra-violet light
- Simple to operate and require little maintenance
Our nanomesh water filtration products produce water to EPA Drinking Water Standards.
- Seldon's products are covered by Patents on fluid purification materials: Issued: US in May 2007 - 7,211,320; EU in August 2007; Spain, Great Britian, Italy, France, Germany and The Netherlands in Oct 2007 and Patents on fluid purification articles: Issued: US in Sept 2008 - 7,419,601; Pending in EU
Filtration Capability
Seldon’s patented Nanomesh™ filter technology incorporates carbon nanotubes into a media that allows for breakthrough contaminant removal.
Nanomesh™ Media:
- Removes bacteria, virus, Cryptosporidium and Giardia to EPA drinking water standards. (99.9999% bacteria, 99.99% virus and 99.9% cysts.)
- Reduces sediment, chlorine, total organic carbon (TOC), bad taste and odor.
- Partially removes harmful chemical contaminants including
- Heavy metals such as lead and cadmium
- organophosphates (pesticides/herbicides)
- disinfection byproducts
- Reduces radioactive contaminants such as Cesium-137
New Technology in Development
Seldon continues to expand its nanomesh platform to many applications in filtration and structural materials. Please check back soon for a new website that will offer many more details.
