GAC-4520, Granular Activated Carbon Drinking Water Filter Cartridge

Each carbon source produces a GAC with a unique pore structure consisting of micro-pores, mesopores, and macro-pores. Micro-pores are very small—often smaller than a typical molecule (5-1000 Angstroms). Coconut shell carbons tend to have a higher percentage of micro-pores making it a good choice for small organics and disinfection byproducts. Wood carbons have more macro-pores making them better for de-colorization and removal of larger organics. Coal bases give an intermediate pore structure making them a good choice for general-purpose organic reduction. GAC’s capacity for organic removal is derived from its very high surface area. A single gram of GAC can have a surface area exceeding 1000 m2. A pound of carbon has over 35 acres of surface— almost 100 football fields. It is not possible to utilize the complete surface area of GAC nor is it necessary.
