Water treatment balls (sometimes called ceramic balls or mineral balls) are used in water filtration systems, especially in household filters and some industrial applications. They usually contain various natural minerals and elements that each serve specific purposes in water purification.
Here’s a breakdown of the common materials in water treatment balls and their effects:
1. Tourmaline
Effect: Emits negative ions, helps to break down water clusters, and improves water absorption in the body.
Benefit: Makes water taste smoother and can have mild alkalizing effects.

2. Maifan Stone (Medical Stone)
Effect: Releases essential minerals (like calcium, magnesium, potassium).
Benefit: Mineralizes water, improves taste, and can slightly raise pH to make water alkaline.

3. Far Infrared Ceramic
Effect: Emits far-infrared rays to energize water molecules and increase oxygen content.
Benefit: Helps to activate water, which may improve hydration and freshness.

4. Calcium Carbonate
Effect: Raises water pH by adding calcium ions.
Benefit: Increases alkalinity of water, helps neutralize acidity, and provides calcium.
5. Zeolite
Effect: Acts as an ion exchanger to remove heavy metals like lead, cadmium, and other toxins.
Benefit: Purifies water and improves safety.
6. Activated Carbon (sometimes used in ball form)
Effect: Adsorbs chlorine, odors, and organic contaminants.
Benefit: Improves taste and smell of water.
7. Silver Ion Ceramic Balls
Effect: Releases silver ions that have antibacterial properties.
Benefit: Inhibits bacterial growth inside the filter.
8. Magnesium Balls
Effect: Adds magnesium ions to water.
Benefit: Raises water alkalinity and provides essential minerals.
