KDF or Kinetic Degradation Fluxion is a water filtration media used in a number of water filtration applications. KDF is brass.

Product

It was developed in 1984 and patented by Don Heskett in 1987. KDF is an alloy of copper and zinc.

KDF is effective in removing chlorine from liquids along with chlorine's by-products and mercury. It is not effective in removing pesticides

KDF based disk filters have been developed to treat mineral raw materials including coal flotation concentrates and cement slurry. Its use achieves lower energy consumption per filtration as compared to more traditional vacuum filters as well as using less water.

The effectiveness of activated carbon filters can be increased by combining them with KDF.
