Benefits Of Walnut Shell Backwashable Media Filters (article)
Filtra Systems Company developed the walnut shell filter about 40 years ago. One of the attractions of walnut shell is how well it can handle oil. When oil mixes together with sand, it essentially becomes asphalt. With walnut shell, the oil is coalesced and then, when it’s backwashed, the oil can be released from the shell.

Enviro-Tech Systems
The Enviro-Shell Black Walnut Shell media filter is the 8th generation in the evolution of walnut shell filters. It brings to the market an innovative filter that provides economic advantages to waste water cleanup applications.

The Enviro-Shell™ performs as all down flow nut shell filters except it incorporates new innovations that have benefits over previous nut shell filters.

Opinion:
I believe products that filter water with nut shells are more of a danger for trades people and other workers working with these products, than for people drinking the water filtered by nuts.

Brita Water Filter
Brita Filter
"What is special about the BRITA Carbon? It's activated carbon which is made by soaking organic material (usually coconut shells) in special solutions and super heating it without oxygen to produce a greater surface with lots of pores ... example: 1oz. of granular activated carbon equals 186,500 square feet of surface ( approximately 4 acres) ... this is why it is the ideal filtering substance best suited to take up the maximum of organic molecules. Activated carbon is used extensively in the food and medical applications. BRITA uses only the best, highest quality, food grade carbon made from coconut shells and gives it a special treatment to inhibit bacteria growth in the cartridge."

Nanostruck Provides Clean Water Via Shrimp Filtration
A group of researchers at the Mississauga tech firm Nanostruck, located at the north end of the city, have found that shrimp, in addition to being a delightful appetizer, are fantastic water filtration devices. The team has pioneered a “molecular sponge” based on the compounds found in the shells of crustaceans such as shrimp and lobster and have used this “sponge” to filter dirty industrial water into a viable water source.
