H2S-10BB - Catalytic Activated Carbon for 10in Large Diameter Housing for Hydrogen Sulphide PFAS, PFOA, and PFOS

Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is a gas which if dissolved in water smells like rotten eggs. The easiest way to remove the smell of small amounts is to aerate the water or pass it through carbon.

In a H2S Backwashing system the H2S is sprayed through a layer of air held in the top of the vessel oxidising the gas vastly improving the capacity of the carbon reducing the need and cost of replacement carbon. However, in some cases space and cost may be a deciding factor. This 20in Large Diameter Cartridge contains Catalytic Activated carbon designed specifically to reduce the effect of H2S and can be inserted into a Large Diameter 20in Housing. The cartridge is refillable

Catalytic carbon is a specially treated activated carbon that chemically breaks down and traps hard-to-remove pollutants. It is most highly valued for removing chloramines (municipal disinfectants) and hydrogen sulfide (which causes the "rotten egg" smell in well water).

Beyond those key pollutants, catalytic carbon targets a wide variety of water contaminants:

• Chlorine and Chloramines: Converts toxic disinfectants into harmless chloride, ammonia, and nitrogen.
• Hydrogen Sulfide: Neutralizes and converts this gas into harmless compounds to remove foul odours.
• Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Eliminates agricultural and industrial chemicals like herbicides, pesticides, and trihalomethanes (THMs).
• Heavy Metals & Minerals: Reduces low levels of iron and manganese.
• Emerging Contaminants: Targets and degrades stubborn synthetic chemicals like PFAS, PFOA, and PFOS.

Because it acts as a catalyst, it doesn't just physically trap contaminants like standard activated carbon—it accelerates chemical reactions to decompose them.
