Activated Carbon Filter Cartridges

Activated Carbon Filter Cartridges

Activated carbon, as an adsorbent material with large surface area and abundant pores, is commonly used in water filters to remove odors and pollutants from water, including chlorine, volatile organic compounds, pesticides, sulfides, heavy metals, etc., thus improving the quality and taste of water.

Common activated carbon filter cartridges include UDF and CTO, where the activated carbon is usually made from coal and coconut shells through high temperature carbonization and activation.

UDF Granular Activated Carbon Filters

UDF (granular activated carbon cartridge) is an economical water replacement cartridge. It is filled with high quality granular activated carbon, which has a large number of micropores and a large specific surface area after steam activation, so it shows a strong adsorption capacity in water filtration. It can effectively adsorb pollutants in the water such as organic matter, odor, pesticides, and residual chlorine.
UDF cartridge shells are usually made of plastic or other corrosion-resistant materials. Coconut shell and granular activated carbon is filled into the cartridge and then sealed to prevent the particles from leaking. When passing through the filter cartridge, the water flows from bottom to top, where the granular activated carbon allows the water to flow through easily without a lot of resistance, with a fast adsorption rate, able to adsorb large particles of impurities in the water, residual chlorine etc.

CTO Activated Carbon Block Cartridge Filters

CTO (activated carbon block filters) is extruded from 30x60 mesh coconut shell and coal granular activated carbon by adding binder, and the outer layer is wrapped with a layer of polypropylene microfiber cloth, which can prevent particles larger than 10-20 microns in the liquid, making the cartridge have the dual functions of filtration and purification.
When the activated carbon is ground into finer particles, the surface area will increase and the adsorption capacity will be enhanced, which can remove both large particulate matter and tiny pollutants in the water, making the adsorption effect good and improving the purification effect of water. When passing through the filter cartridge, water flows through the media all the way down, contacting the activated carbon in the process, improving the taste of the water and making it fresher.

Activated Carbon Filter Cartridges Application

UDF and CTO activated carbon water filter cartridges are widely used in a variety of water treatment industries, such as domestic water dispenser systems, commercial drinking water equipment, beverage processing industry, and so on.

  • UDF granular activated carbon cartridges can effectively remove large impurities, residual chlorine, odors, and residual pesticides from water. It's perfect for industries with poor water quality, noticeable odors, darker color, and high levels of impurities, suspended solids, and silt.

  • CTO extruded activated carbon block cartridges adopt compressed activated carbon with high density and strong adsorption capacity, which can remove organic solvents, pesticides, residual chlorine, odors, etc. It is suitable for the industry areas where the water contains more dissolved pollutants and has higher requirements for water quality.
