Nitrates can be found in water supplies that are in areas where there are heavy use of fertilizers. Nitrates can cause Methemoglobinemia a.k.a. blue baby syndrome. This is a serious condition in young infants and new born animals where the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood is reduced.

In applications where higher percentages of nitrate removal are required or where total house treatment is required for a lower cost than whole house reverse osmosis, ion exchange is the best answer.

In the ion exchange process, water containing nitrates is passed through a modified water softener. This special softener contains a resin that is manufactured solely for the purpose of removing nitrates and sulfates in the water. As they are removed they are replaced (exchanged) with harmless chloride. The source of chloride is from the salt used to regenerate the unit which can be either traditional softener salt - sodium CHLORIDE or a special salt called potassium CHLORIDE. Rather than waste either the sodium or the potassium we place the special nitrate resin on top of regular softening resin and along with removing the nitrates and sulfates we also soften the water with the same amount of salt being used. We get a free bonus of softening.

Of particular importance is the proper selection of the nitrate removal resin. It is specially formulated to cling tightly to the nitrates and sulfates until regeneration is required and not let them release into the water in excess amounts --- a process called "dumping". As long as the equipment is functioning, safety is virtually guaranteed. A meter control on the unit is very important to insure that regeneration is done even when unexpected excess water use occurs.

Nitrate Eater Features 
  • The EPA has approved ion exchange and reverse osmosis treatment methods for removing nitrates/nitrites. The maximum contaminant level (MCL) is 10 parts per million (ppm) nitrate as nitrogen (NO3 as N). A laboratory may also choose to express nitrate as nitrate (NO3 as NO3) in the water analysis, and in this case, the EPA MCL is 44.2 ppm (10 ppm as N is equivalent to 44.2 ppm as NO3).
  • Selective Nitrate resin is NSF certification under NSF Standard 61 for potable water municipal installations as a process media.
  • Unlike most nitrate filters, the Nitrate Eater is designed to soften your hard water as well as remove high nitrates. Why both?
  • Removes up to 150 mg/L Nitrate & 40 grains (684 mg/L) Hard Water!
  • Nitrate levels are reduced well below the EPA standard, and in most cases, non-detectable!​​

The Nitrate Eater is a self-backwashing system that automatically removes the trapped contaminants within the filter bed and washes them down the drain. This is accomplished with a digital electronic control valve that is mounted on top of the Nitrate Eater. This valve is controlled by an electronic meter that calculates the amount of water being used. Once the meter reaches x amount of gallons, it then initiates the backwash cycle that cleans the bed of filtration media and resets it for the next period of filtration. Easy maintenance - periodically add sodium pellets or sodium-free potassium pellets to brine tank needed to regenerate the media.
Since the legalization in many states across the United States, commercial marijuana farms are sprouting up everywhere. Cannabis cultivation is a closely monitored and controlled agricultural production, whether it's indoor farming (using hydroponics) or outdoor farming. Between competing farms, businesses must focus on the quality of their product before the quantity

Whether you're growing with well water or city water, surface water sources or chemically treated water sources, growers should know what's in their water and how it affects their crop. Commercial cannabis farms utilize a variety of costly nutrients and additives to provide the perfect balanced regimen for the their plants, but often forget that the water provides its own nutrients.

​Chemical properties such as chlorine/chloramine, fluoride, pesticides, soluble salts, and pH all play a roll in plant production. Even in certain cases, elements like boron, iron, and manganese can take a toll on plants. In addition to chemical properties, physical properties can affect not only plant growth but irrigation equipment as well. Suspended solids such as soil particles and mineral deposits can clog nozzles and cause abrasion of irrigation equipment, resulting in labor-intensive cleaning or replacing. 

So what can marijuana farmers do to optimize plant growth and produce a high-yielding farm? Make the investment that will pay for itself when you experience the results first-hand - 
water filtration. Clean Brew Water has branched out into the agricultural world to offer water filtration systems customized for the individual growers' needs.
