About Air Science Carbon Filter

Explore the advanced capabilities of our Carbon Filter for Organics, Solvents, and Hydrocarbons, a reliable and effective solution for air purification. This high-quality filter utilizes the principle of adsorption, a process that captures and contains gas molecules, making it an innovative choice for those seeking superior air filtration.

This durable carbon filter operates through two main adsorption processes: physical adsorption and chemisorption. Physical adsorption is a non-specific process where gas molecules are attracted and captured by Van Der Waals' forces. These molecules then penetrate into the filter's pores, which are vast in number, providing an aggregate surface area of approximately 2000 sq m/g. This expansive surface area is roughly equivalent to four football fields, ensuring a comprehensive filtration process.

Chemisorption, on the other hand, involves a chemical reaction where the resultant compound is trapped on the filter material. This process, coupled with the impregnation of filter media, extends the range of gases that can be removed from the air stream, making this filter a versatile tool for air purification.

The efficiency of this carbon filter depends on several factors including temperature, humidity, residence time, filter age, evaporation rate, and chemical concentration. For optimal performance, it's recommended to maintain a temperature below 40 degrees Celsius and a relative humidity below 60%. The residence time, or the time the air stays in contact with the carbon, should be maximized for effective adsorption.

This carbon filter, designed by the reputable brand Air Science, is not recommended for use in environments with very large quantities of contaminants, highly toxic substances, or unknown reactions. However, for standard applications requiring the filtration of organics, solvents, and hydrocarbons, this filter offers a reliable and effective solution. Experience the difference in air quality with our Carbon Filter for Organics, Solvents, and Hydrocarbons.
