How to effectively intercept residual chlorine and odor with activated carbon filter

In the treatment of household and industrial water, residual chlorine and odor are common water quality problems, and activated carbon filter is the "behind-the-scenes hero" to solve these problems. Its efficient interception ability comes from its unique physical and chemical properties.

The core of the activated carbon filter is the activated carbon material, which has a huge specific surface area and rich microporous structure. When water flows through the filter, impurities such as residual chlorine molecules, pigments, and odor substances will be adsorbed into the micropores of the activated carbon. This process is not a simple physical interception, but is based on the adsorption of activated carbon - the van der Waals force between its porous surface and the impurity molecules, so that the impurities are firmly "grasped".

For residual chlorine, the chemical groups on the surface of activated carbon can also undergo redox reactions with it, further accelerating its removal. As for odor, activated carbon can not only adsorb colored substances, but also decompose volatile organic compounds through its surface functional groups, eliminating odors from the root.

In order to maintain efficient interception ability, the activated carbon filter needs to be replaced regularly. As the usage time increases, the filter element will be saturated and the performance will gradually decline. Therefore, depending on the water quality and frequency of use, it is recommended to replace the filter element every 6-12 months to ensure the continued purity of the water quality.

The activated carbon filter element, with its dual mechanism of microporous adsorption and chemical reaction, is an ideal choice for intercepting residual chlorine and foreign colors and odors, providing reliable protection for household and industrial water use.
