LA 20 BIG SX TS - Activated Carbon Granule Water Filter

LA 20 BIG SX TS - Granulated Activated Carbon Water Filter  

Granulated activated carbon filters are an effective method for purifying water. The improved filtration performance is due to the large surface area of the carbon granules, which can adsorb a variety of contaminants from the water. Here is how this process works:

1. Large surface area: Granulated activated carbon consists of small, porous granules with a huge surface area. This surface area provides many places where contaminants can stick. The porous structure of the activated carbon granules creates an even larger surface area.

2. Adsorption: The process by which contaminants are removed from the water is called adsorption. The contaminants are not chemically changed or broken down, but simply stick to the surface of the activated carbon.

3. Removal of contaminants: When the water flows through the activated carbon filter, contaminants such as chlorine, organic compounds, and other impurities stick to the surface of the activated carbon. This results in clean, purified water on the other side of the filter.

The granulated activated carbon filter made from coconut shells filters the following contaminants from the water:

- chlorine
- organic contaminants
- taste impairment
- odour impairment
- pesticides
- insecticides
- solvents
- volatile organic compounds
- the filter also removes oils and aromas

- additionally removes mechanical impurities (sand, rust, and other sediments) with 10 micron PP core inside
