The Aquaripure nitrate filter, also know as a denitrator, is a comprehensive biological filter. It uses beneficial bacteria to break down invisible organic matter and nitrates completely into Nitrogen gas which then escapes into the atmosphere. The Aquaripure achieves this in an extremely safe and controlled environment and after the water from the Aquaripure is aerated there is nothing left but pure, clean, crystal clear water.
