When it comes to water filtration, there is no doubt that carbon filtering is one of the most used filtration systems. This is because activated carbon is a natural and safe material that happens to catch dirt very efficiently. The carbon is highly porous so it can trap a lot of particles, even the very tiny ones. It works using the process of adsorption, which is the accumulation of particles to form a film on the surface of a material, which is in this case, carbon.
Thus, it is not surprising that even the most sophisticated filtration systems use carbon filtering. Before biological and chemical filtration can take place, water should under go mechanical filtration first through a
carbon filter media.
Eventually, though, the carbon filter media gets used up so it needs to be changed. If you are using an Eheim filter, you can replace your carbon filter media with the Eheim Carbon Filter Pad for 2222/2224 Canister Filter
