Additional Info
Bone Char 8x24 Mesh (coarse granular bone charcoal) is a unique carbonaceous adsorbent manufactured from the treatment and carbonization of selected grades of animal bone and is used for liquid phase filtration to remove organic and inorganic species such as color bodies and many heavy metals. Can be used in numerous bone char water filter designs and in combination with standard granular activated charcoal filters.
GAC Filter Media
Granular Activated Carbon 12x40 Mesh made from coconut shell. This hard highly adsorptive charcoal is very effective in both WATER & AIR FILTERS in numerous applications. It is ACID WASHED for extra purity.
