Where should I use activated carbon at home?<\/div><\/a><\/div>

For household\u00a0 applications ,water purification requires activated carbon (AC) It removes chlorine ,Odors, most of the natural\u00a0 organic compounds and some chemicals. <\/span>Activated carbon can effectively remove a wide range of natural organic compounds including humic substances, fulvic acids, tannins, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and other dissolved organic matter<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our low ash AC carbon would impart natural sweetness if required<\/span><\/p>\n

Special grade catalytic carbon removes chlorine, chloramines and other disinfectant by products\u00a0 (DBP) which may come from municipal water treatment units.In addition this grade works faster and last longer thant other two grades.<\/span><\/p>\n

If ground water is used,our AC helps in removal of odours,H2S,other\u00a0 VOC, some Minerals like Iron, Copper etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

All our above mentioned products are NSF 61 certified for use in drinking water purifications.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

Are there any other uses Activated Carbon?<\/div><\/a><\/div>

Yes,definitely. There is a host of other uses for which please refer Industrial application section.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

How does Activated carbon purify water ?<\/div><\/a><\/div>

There are two properties in AC that help in above purification processes.
\nFirst one is adsorption inside a large number of pores having very large surface area in a given weight.; where contaminant molecules are captured and trapped. These trapped molecules would not come back to water under normal operating conditions.
\nThe other property is catalytic activity present in all grades of carbon but much enhanced in catalytic carbon. This property converts harmful molecules in to non harmful products at low concentrations.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

<\/svg><\/div><\/div>
Is there a usable life period for AC?<\/div><\/a><\/div>

Yes, nad this depends on the amount of contaminants in the water and the amount of water filtered. Under average household conditions using municipal water and average filter volume would last for about six months. However ,the volume of water which can be treated is generally indicated in the supplier\u2019s pack.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

What are the starting materials nad How is AC manufactured ?<\/div><\/a><\/div>

There are several carbon containing materials both natural and mieral types are used as raw matereials in the production of Ac<\/span><\/p>\n

Renewable\u00a0 raw materials \u2013Wood ,coconut shells, pecanshells\u00a0 and other \u00a0 fruit stones.<\/span><\/p>\n
