Activated Carbon Filtration for Chlorine Removal

High Effectiveness: Activated carbon is exceptionally effective at removing chlorine and chloramines from drinking water.
Adsorption Process: The removal mechanism relies on adsorption, where chlorine molecules are trapped on the porous surface of the carbon medium.
Chemical Reduction: Free chlorine is typically converted into harmless chloride ions upon contact with the carbon.
Key Factors:
Contact time (water flow rate) significantly influences the efficiency of the filtration.
The amount of activated carbon in the filter determines its long-term capacity.
Taste and Odor: Beyond chlorine removal, this process successfully improves overall water taste and eliminates unpleasant odors.
