What is the difference between anthracite and activated carbon? Can it also absorb odors?
By Zhao from Onlyzone,a manufacturer of water treatment bio ceramic ball filter media in China.
Anthracite and activated carbon are not the same.
Anthracite filter material is a kind of filter material for water treatment industry. It is specially selected from deep well minerals and refined.
Coal-based activated carbon is a porous carbonaceous material with a highly developed pore structure and is an excellent adsorbent.
Both of them can filter water. Anthracite works by the filtering function. It is generally used for industrial water and urban sewage treatment. It is used in conjunction with quartz sand and magnetite filter materials and is used in single-layer, double-layer, and multi-layer filters. . Coal-based activated carbon filters water through adsorption and is used as a water filter material. It can also absorb harmful gases in the air and can also be used as an air adsorbent.
