Description
A GAC Granular Activated Carbon Water Filter Purifier Cartridge is a type of water filter that contains activated carbon in a granular form. The 10 inch refers to its standard size, which fits most standard-sized water filtration systems. Activated carbon is known for its high adsorption capacity, meaning it can trap contaminants from water as it flows through the cartridge.
Use Cases:
- Removal of Chlorine and Odor: The GAC filter is highly effective in removing chlorine, which is often present in municipal water supplies, as well as improving the taste and odor of water.
- Elimination of Organic Compounds: It can also remove organic compounds such as pesticides, herbicides, and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs).
- Reduction of Sediment: While not primarily a sediment filter, it can still reduce some fine particles like dirt and rust, depending on its pore size.
- Use in Home Water Purification Systems: Commonly used in home under-sink water filtration systems, reverse osmosis systems, or countertop units for providing clean drinking water.
Its versatility in adsorbing various impurities makes it a popular choice for enhancing water quality.
