Activated Carbon Filters

A filter with granular activated carbon (GAC) is a proven option to remove certain chemicals, particularly organic chemicals, from water. GAC filters also can be used to remove chemicals that give objectionable odors or tastes to water such as hydrogen sulfide (rotten eggs odor) or chlorine.Activated carbon filtration is one of many processes commonly used in water treatment to remove contaminants such as organic materials, and since it also can remove odor-causing contaminants, it's often used to make drinking water more palatable.
