About

ToxSorb is a water technology company specializing in the design, construction, and operation of customized filtration systems using its proprietary Modified Activated Carbon (MAC) media, which is engineered to remove specific contaminants from water. ToxSorb customizes each solution to the unique water chemistry and effluent needs of the client.

MAC is a chemical modification of traditional activated carbon, enabling the removal of a wide range of inorganic pollutants while maintaining its original absorption capability for organic pollutants. Each MAC platform is designed to have selectivity and affinity toward a specific pollutant while ignoring nonessential molecules in the water. This allows MAC to outperform traditional ion exchange systems (e.g. resins) in real-life conditions where the target pollutant is competing with other ions.

MAC is NSF-approved for chromium, arsenic, and perchlorate removal in drinking water and has been successfully proven to remove phosphate, sulfate, nitrate, nickel, copper, permanganate, silver, zinc, cyanide, and more. It is also durable and reusable, keeping maintenance costs low. MAC has been used in drinking water, groundwater remediation, domestic wastewater treatment, mining, and surface-finishing projects in Israel, Italy, and the U.S.

ToxSorb is a part of WFI Group (Water From Innovation Group).
