Choosing the Right Activated Carbon

Three key factors determine the optimal carbon media for your application.

💧

Large Organic Molecules

For removal of large molecular weight organics and colour compounds, choose AquaSorb 5000 — a mesoporous GAC with 1200 m²/g surface area and extended pore volume.

🔬

Trace Organics & Taste/Odour

For trace-level contaminants, low molecular weight organics, and chlorine taste/odour removal, choose AquaSorb CP1 (PAC) or Pentek GAC / TSGAC cartridges.

🔧

Point-of-Use & RO Pre-treatment

For compact point-of-use systems and RO pre-treatment, choose Lenn Filtration CHV2510 (480 L/h) or Pentek GAC cartridges (2 gpm). For combined scale & rust control, use TSGAC.

How Activated Carbon Purifies Water
