Activated carbon filter cartridges filter out dissolved organic substances, odour components, residual chemicals or stains. There are primarily used in:
• Water treatment (to remove chlorine, pesticide and residual ozone)
• The beverage industry (to neutralise flavour and odour defects)
• Chemical production (to collect solvent residues or reaction by-products)
• Pharmaceutical and cosmetic processes (to remove colour and odour components)
What versions are there?
We can supply several different kinds of activated carbon filter cartridges, namely:
- Bound activated carbon: less channelling and dust release. These are well suited for food-grade applications.
- Individual carbon cartridges: maximum absorption capacity with short contact time
- Carbon block elements: blocks of compressed activated carbon that remove both particles and dissolved substances.
- Impregnated carbon filters: carbon impregnated with metal salts or acids, targeting specific contaminants such as sulphur compounds or amines.
Activated carbon filter cartridges are, furthermore, compatible with standard DOE or O-ring housings and available in different lengths and with different connections.
It is important to bear in mind that activated carbon is not a standard filtration solution. Contact our specialists for the best advice on the use of activated carbon filter cartridges. They can advise you on the right type of carbon, pore structure and contact time.
