How Activated Carbon Filters Work: A Complete Guide for Water Purification

Clean water is essential for a healthy lifestyle, and activated carbon filters have become one of the most popular solutions for water purification. But how do these filters work? Let’s dive into the details and explore how activated carbon filters remove impurities, making water safer and better-tasting.

What Are Activated Carbon Filters?

Activated carbon filters, like the ones used in CTO 10-Inch Water Filter Cartridge and CTO 20-Inch Jumbo Water Filter Cartridge, are designed to eliminate contaminants through a process called adsorption. This process traps impurities within the porous surface of the activated carbon.

How Does Activated Carbon Purify Water?

Activated carbon, often made from materials like coconut shells or coal, is processed to increase its surface area. When water passes through the filter, harmful substances such as chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and unpleasant odors are removed.

For example, our CTO Slim Block 7-Inch Inline Filter is specifically designed for compact systems, ensuring excellent purification while saving space.
