Activated Carbon Filter |
|
Activated carbon adsorption is an effective means for reducing organic chemicals, chlorine, lead, and unpleasant tastes and odours in effluent or coloured substances from gas or liquid streams.
Typically for activated materials, surface areas range from 500-1400 m2/gm. Adsorption can be classically defined as absorption on the surface of the material due to capillary condensation inside the multitude of pores/active sites available. Because organic chemicals are often responsible for taste, odor, and colour problems, activated carbon filtration can generally be used to improve such impurities. |
