SUPERPURE 10 inch Big Blue GAC Granular Activated Water Filter (3-Pack)

The SUPERPURE 10 inch Big Blue GAC Granular Activated Carbon Water Filter (3-Pack) is a handy pack of GAC filters designed specifically for your Big Blue Filter systems.

Granular Active Carbon is carbon that has been treated with oxygen to make it porous, but it has also been broken up into granules to further increase the surface area for chemical bondage to occur. The water passes through the GAC filter, allowing the organic materials and chlorine to effectively bond with the carbon molecules, thus removing these from the water.

Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) has a high surface area, providing a large number of adsorption sites for contaminants; this allows it to effectively adsorb a wide range of impurities, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), chlorine and odours from your water. GAC is particularly effective at removing organic contaminants from water due to its affinity for organic molecules. It can efficiently adsorb organic compounds, such as; pesticides, herbicides, industrial chemicals, and natural organic matter, improving the taste, odour and overall purity of water.

Granular activated carbon is effective at removing chlorine and chloramines, which are often added as disinfectants during the water treatment process, GAC effectively adsorbs these disinfectants, reducing their concentration in (often municipal sourced) treated water and improving its overall taste and odour for your enjoyment and consumption.

Why choose Activated Carbon over Standard Carbon?

Activated carbon is a better filtration media than 'regular' carbon due it being more effective at absorbing harmful chemicals and contaminants, whether in water or the human body. The process that Activated carbon undergoes in order to 'activate' it, creates a highly porous carbon structure with a larger surface area than regular carbon. Activated carbon offers multiple health and filtration benefits making it the superior carbon to use in your filtration systems.
