Activated Carbon Filters By Hari Ions (India) Pvt. Ltd.

We are engaged in offering excellent quality Activated Carbon Filters to our valuable clients. Activated carbon (AC) is generally used in water treatment for removing free chlorine and / or organic compounds. Removal of organics from potable water could be to prevent common organic acids such as humic or fulvic from reacting with chlorine to form trihalomethanes (a class of known carcinogens) or, to treat waste water to remove any number of organic compounds to make the water suitable for discharge. Similar to other types of water treatment, however, AC filtration is effective for some contaminants and not effective for others. AC filtration does not remove microbes, sodium, nitrates, fluoride, and hardness. Lead and other heavy metals are removed only by a very specific type of AC and this would typically only be feasible for point-of-use household filters.
Sources and Preparation: AC derives from an organic source. Common ones used in water and waste water treatment include coal (bituminous or anthracite) and coconut shells. Carbon is formed when the basic source is burned in virtual absence of oxygen which drives off the heavy, organic molecules leaving about 30% of the original mass remaining. This carbonaceous material must be further treated or a activateda before it is useful in water treatment. We offer these Activated Carbon Filters at most affordable prices to our precious customers.
