Chemical Air Filter – Purify Air, Eliminate Odors

Chemical air filter, also known as activated carbon filter, is a filtration device specifically designed to remove odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and low-concentration harmful gases from air. It utilizes activated carbon and other adsorbent materials to physically adsorb or chemically react with gaseous pollutants, and is widely used in industrial, commercial, and residential ventilation systems to effectively improve air quality and ensure personnel health and equipment safety.

  • Honeycomb structural design ensures smooth airflow and prevents filter media deformation.
  • Nylon mesh and protective screen prevent carbon particle leakage and enhance wind pressure resistance.
  • Effectively removes odors, VOCs, and low-concentration harmful gases.
  • Employs activated carbon granules, pelletized carbon, or impregnated materials as the filtering media.

Filter Materials
Powdered Activated Carbon

Powdered activated carbon is typically combined with filter materials such as non-woven fabric or synthetic fibers to form activated carbon filters or carbon-infused filter media. These are used for the efficient removal of odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and certain harmful gases from the air.

  • High-quality powdered activated carbon is uniformly distributed across the base material
  • Effectively adsorbs harmful gases such as formaldehyde, benzene, and TVOCs
  • Can be processed into bag-type, panel-type, pleated, and other structural forms to suit various equipment
  • Commonly used in household air purifiers, ventilation systems, and cleanrooms for primary chemical filtration.

Columnar Activated Carbon

Columnar activated carbon is primarily used in replaceable or regenerable chemical filters, designed for treating high-concentration organic gases, hazardous volatiles and corrosive gases.

  • Filled with high-strength columnar activated carbon for high adsorption efficiency and long service life
  • Optional fillings include activated carbon of various particle sizes and materials, such as coal-based, coconut shell-based, and impregnated types.
  • Commonly combined with honeycomb panels, making it suitable for high-airflow central HVAC systems or cleanroom gas treatment systems.
  • Widely used in laboratory exhaust systems, acid-alkali waste gas treatment in electronics factories, and precision equipment protection.

Refolded Activated Carbon Filter
Features
  • Pleated structure. It allows more filter media to be packed within a limited filter volume, significantly increasing the filtration area per unit volume and enhancing both filtration efficiency and adsorption capacity.
  • Reduced air resistance. A larger filtration area results in lower air velocity per unit area, thereby reducing overall resistance (pressure drop) and maintaining optimal ventilation performance.
  • Enhanced structural stability. The pleated filter media, supported by a frame, effectively prevents deformation or collapse caused by air pressure.
  • Extended service life. Improved utilization of the filter media enables more uniform distribution of dust and gas adsorption, delaying filter saturation and the rise in airflow resistance.
Structure
  • Filter media: Composed of activated carbon granules and ultrafine fiber composite material.
  • Frame: ABS plastic.
