Volatile organic compounds are very small gases released from certain solids or liquids. Tobacco is made up of over 7,000 chemicals, 70 of which are carcinogenic and another 180 are known to be harmful to health, causing heart, lung and other diseases. It is inserted into the air purifier to trap and remove gas molecules and VOCs from the air, pollutants that HEPA filters cannot handle. What pollutants can Activated Carbon remove?Īctivated Carbon is used in conjunction with air purifiers particularly HEPA air filters. Meanwhile, if the fluid’s atoms, ions or molecules stick to a surface of liquid or solid adsorbent, it’s called adsorption. Absorption happens when a fluid passes through or enters inside a liquid or solid absorbent. Their one distinct difference is the place where the fluid gets trapped. It is injected with hot air, carbon dioxide, or steam to create grids of tiny pores that trap gas molecules.Īctivated carbon uses the adsorption process to remove pollutants from the air. Coconut shells also produce lesser amounts of dust and fine carbon particles compared to wood and coal.Ĭarbon gets activated by undergoing additional processes to make it better at trapping gas molecules. The former have more surface area and general porosity. They are made by taking solid pieces of carbon and pulverizing them into smaller grains.Īctivated carbon made from coconut shells are preferable over those made from wood or carbon. These pellets of carbon last much longer than Powdered Activated Carbon or PAC. Granular Activated Carbon or GAC is commonly used in air filters. It was first used by the British Army in chemical warfare to remove gases.Īctivated carbon is available mainly in powdered or granular form. The Activated Carbon filter or charcoal filter was originally called HEGA (High Efficiency Gas Absorption) filter. We look at the importance of activated carbon in air purification for homes and offices. In combination with the Heylo dust protection door DCD 3.0 you get the dust protection system DCS-PF 1400.Activated Carbon is used in high quality air purifiers because of its effectiveness in removing harmful gases not addressed by HEPA filters. The structure of the metal housing is very easy to maintain, and the air filter can thus be cleaned and maintained quickly and easily. The design of the metal housing is very service-friendly and the air purifier can thus be cleaned and maintained quickly and easily.įor odour elimination, an activated carbon filter can be fitted as well. Coarse dust, fine dust or dangerous particles such as mould spores? All no problem for the PowerFilter 1400.Īn activated carbon filter can also be used for odour elimination. With the ergonomic carrying handle, the air purifier can be transported effortlessly from room to room.ĭifferent filters are available, which can be replaced very easily (delivery without filter). Due to its small dimensions and very light weight, it is particularly suitable for refurbishment in small rooms. The compact Heylo PowerFilter 1400 air purifier sets the standard on construction sites and in industry.
