CTO Carbon Block Coal Based Water Filter Cartridge 20 Inch Fat 4.5 Inch Diameter

Function of Activated Carbon Block Filter CTO carbon block filters are crafted from activated carbon, with the primary function of chemically adsorbing impurities and contaminants in drinking water. These filters are widely used to remove chlorine, enhance taste, eliminate odors, and improve water clarity by reducing discoloration.

Benefits of Activated Carbon Block Filters

  • Effective Contaminant Removal: Actively eliminates both man-made and natural contaminants, including chlorine, benzene, simazine, lindane, and more.
  • Improved Water Quality: Enhances the taste and odor of drinking water, ensuring a clean, refreshing experience.

What is Activated Carbon (Charcoal) and Why is it Used in Filters?

Activated carbon, also known as activated charcoal, is carbon that has been treated with oxygen to create millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms. These pores significantly increase the surface area of the carbon, ranging from 300 to 1,900 square meters per gram. This high porosity makes activated carbon highly effective at adsorbing odorous or colored substances from a variety of liquids and gases.

Difference Between Charcoal and Activated Charcoal

  • Activated Charcoal: Activated charcoal is created through a process that exposes charcoal to oxygen, opening up a vast network of tiny pores. This process increases the surface area dramatically, making activated charcoal far more effective at adsorbing impurities compared to regular charcoal.
  • Adsorption Explained: Adsorption is the process by which substances adhere to the surface of activated charcoal through chemical attraction. The extensive surface area of activated charcoal offers numerous bonding opportunities, allowing it to effectively capture carbon-based impurities like chlorine.
Activated charcoal is especially efficient in capturing and holding specific chemicals, making it an essential material in water filtration systems. By using activated carbon block filters, you can ensure that your drinking water is free from harmful contaminants, providing safe, clean, and great-tasting water for your home.
