Activated Carbon IV800 – Granular GAC Filter Media | Puritech

The Puritech activated carbon IV800 is a cost‑effective, high‑performance granular filtration media designed for water purification applications. Made in India, this activated carbon IV800 uses steam‑activated bituminous coal to create a porous medium with strong adsorption capacity. As a result, it effectively removes chlorine, bad tastes, odors, and many dissolved organic contaminants from water, helping improve overall water quality.

Activated carbon works through adsorption, which is the process where contaminants stick to the surface of the media rather than being absorbed into it. Because granular activated carbon has a large internal surface area, even small amounts can capture a wide range of impurities.

Key Benefits of Activated Carbon IV800

  • Chlorine and By‑Product Removal: Reduces chlorine taste and related by‑products that can affect water flavor and safety.
  • Taste and Odor Improvement: Eliminates unpleasant tastes and odors for cleaner, fresher water.
  • Reduction of Organic Contaminants: Helps remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other dissolved organics.
  • High Adsorption Capacity: The iodine value of approximately 800 mg/g indicates strong adsorption performance.
  • Durable Media: Granular structure with high mechanical strength makes it suitable for repeated use in filtration beds.

Typical Applications

This activated carbon IV800 granular media works well in a variety of settings:

  • Drinking water purification in homes and offices
  • Pre‑treatment for reverse osmosis (RO) systems
  • Whole‑house filtration systems
  • Pools and recreational water filtration
  • Industrial and commercial water polishing

Because it improves taste and clarity while reducing chemical contaminants, it’s a versatile choice for many water systems.

How It Works

When water flows through a bed of activated carbon IV800, contaminants such as chlorine and VOCs stick to the large surface area of the carbon granules. Because the media has a high surface area and microporous structure, it can adsorb many dissolved substances that other filters might miss.

For best performance, use this media after a sediment filter, so larger particles are removed first, preventing early clogging and extending the life of the carbon media.

Installation & Maintenance Tips

  • Install in a properly sized filter housing or media tank configured for granular activated carbon.
  • Flush new media before first use to remove carbon fines.
  • Pair with sediment pre‑filters for longer media life and better performance.
  • Replace the carbon periodically based on water quality and usage.

Conclusion

The Puritech activated carbon IV800 is a reliable and effective granular filter media for water treatment. Thanks to its strong adsorption ability, it helps eliminate chlorine, odors, and many organic contaminants, improving water taste and quality. Whether you’re upgrading a home filtration system or adding polishing stages to an industrial setup, this activated carbon offers dependable performance at a great value.
