A ceramic filter removes particles from the water but leaves oxygen and mineral contents unchanged, which gives water its spring-like freshness and taste (not "pure" but wholesome). Pathogens of the most varied diseases that are reliably filtered from the water include; cholera, typhus, cryptosporidium, amoebic dysentery, E.coli, colibacillose or bilharzia, and anthrax spores among others.
Ceramic filtration technology is often called "dead-end filtration” and "depth filtration". There are several mechanisms by which the ceramic element filters out particles as a dead-end filtration.
