Carbon Air Filters

How activated carbon is made?: Most active carbon, as used for gas or vapor trapping, is made from coconut shell. The shells are heated to over 2,000°C under high pressure, which causes fissures on the surface of the carbon, creating a high quality, small pore activated carbon. The fissure system is extensive, creating a very large surface area in a small package, and it is in these fissures that other gases and particles are trapped. A single activated carbon filter has a flattened surface area of a football field.

How does activated carbon remove odors?: Activated Carbon has the ability to capture gas molecules and hold them. The carbon surface is made up of millions of tiny pores, the gas and odors fall into these pores and are trapped there until the pad is disposed. Other methods to get rid of odors such as sprays, only fool you sense of smell - the odors still exist.
