  Terafil Water Filter

TERAFIL has been developed at the Institute of Mineral and Materials Technology (IMMT), formerly known as Regional Research Laboratory, CSIR, Bhubaneswar. TERAFIL discs are prepared under license and training from IMMT. The ingredients used in the preparation of the TERAFIL discs are red clay, sand and wood saw dust mixed in a definite proportion which is then sintered (burnt) in kiln used by artisans.
