Q » What is chelation and how does it affect metal removal?
03 Nov, 2025
A » Chelation is a process where organic molecules called chelating agents bind to metal ions, forming stable complexes. This interaction facilitates the removal of metals from solutions, as the chelated metals become more soluble and less reactive. In water purification, chelation is crucial for extracting heavy metals, improving water quality by reducing metal toxicity and preventing metal-induced damage to infrastructure and ecosystems.
