Granular Activated Carbon Filter

The granular activated carbon filters offer an effective, hassle-free and dependable solution for removing chlorine, taste and odour, organics, and even some models that can reduce metals in the private water supply. These activated carbon water filters are made from natural materials such as coconut, coal, wood, or bone, making them an excellent choice for filtering and removing taste and odour from drinkable water as they don’t add any chemicals or other substances.

The granular activated carbon filter works by absorbing the soluble pollutants onto its surface and holding them. Because the carbon water filter has such a massive surface area, the amount of absorption is probably one of the greatest of any natural man-made material available. However, eventually, as all the pores are filled, the activated carbon water filters will need to be replaced. A carbon water filter model with timer option and backwashing filter is also available that can be set to automatically self-clean (backwash) and wash away any of the accumulated sediment for longer service time.

The sizing below is for a granulated activated carbon filter used for de-chlorination and assumes a contact time of about 4-5 minutes. Organics removal will require a much longer contact time, so please contact us about the units' sizing. Our technical sales engineers will be able to specify the right carbon water filter for your application.
