Introduction to the Principle of Activated Carbon Filters

Activated carbon filters operate through a carbon bed. The activated carbon particles that make up the carbon bed have numerous micropores and a large specific surface area, giving them a strong physical adsorption capacity. Furthermore, the non-crystalline portions of the activated carbon surface contain oxygen-containing energy groups, allowing organic pollutants in the water passing through the carbon bed to be effectively adsorbed. This filter is a commonly used water treatment device. As a pretreatment unit in water treatment desalination systems, it effectively ensures the service life of downstream equipment, improves effluent quality, and prevents contamination, especially preventing poisoning from free residual oxygen in downstream reverse osmosis membranes and ion exchange resins. Activated carbon filters have a significant removal capacity for organic matter, colloids, and pigments in water. Our company offers various specifications and models of stainless steel, rubber-lined carbon steel, and fiberglass activated carbon filters. We also manufacture other types of filters.
