CTO Carbon Block Coconut Shell Based 10 Inch Standard 2.5 Inch Diameter
An activated carbon block filter is an optimal medium for treating contaminants in water, offering an extensive surface area for the adsorption of dissolved substances. The solid carbon block structure enhances this medium by preventing channeling, increasing surface contact time, and enabling custom pore formulations for mechanical filtration. As a result, carbon blocks are among the most effective and widely used technologies in the Point Of Use (POU) drinking water treatment industry.

Function of an Activated Carbon Block Filter Cartridge
Carbon block filters are made from activated carbon, specifically designed to adsorb chemical impurities and contaminants in drinking water. These filters are highly effective in removing chlorine, improving taste, eliminating odors, and reducing color in water.
Features of an Activated Carbon Block Filter
- 5 Micron Filtration: Captures fine particles for cleaner water.
- Effective VOC Removal: Removes chlorine, taste, odor, and certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
- Low Pressure Drop, High Performance: Ensures efficient filtration with minimal impact on water flow.
- High Dust Holding Capacity: Provides extra capacity for trapping particulate matter.
- Greater Solids Holding Capacity: Extends the filter's service life.
- Customizable Media: Various filter media options are available.
- No Carbon Ash Leaching: Ensures clean and safe water without residue.
Benefits of Activated Carbon Block Filters
- Active Contaminant Removal: Efficiently removes man-made and natural contaminants such as chlorine, benzene, simazine, lindane, and more.
- Improved Water Quality: Delivers fresh, clean, and safe drinking water for your home.
What is the Difference Between Charcoal and Activated Charcoal?
Activated charcoal is treated with oxygen to create millions of tiny pores between carbon atoms, resulting in a highly porous material with a surface area ranging from 300 to 1,900 square meters per gram. This unique structure allows activated charcoal to adsorb odorous or colored substances from a wide variety of liquids and gases.
- Adsorption Explained: Adsorption occurs when a material attaches to the surface of activated charcoal through chemical attraction. The immense surface area of activated charcoal offers countless bonding opportunities, making it particularly effective in capturing carbon-based impurities, such as chlorine.
CTO Carbon Block Filters: Ensuring Pure, Clean Water
CTO carbon block filters, made from activated carbon, are designed to adsorb chemical impurities and contaminants in drinking water. Widely used to remove chlorine, taste, odor, and color, these filters provide a durable and effective solution for ensuring your home has access to pure, healthy, and clean water.
By eliminating unwanted byproducts, activated carbon block filters offer peace of mind, delivering the fresh and clean water your household deserves.
