IQAir GC VOC Cartridges (100% granular activated carbon)
The IQAir GC VOC provides for a wide spectrum of air purification needs.
Gas, odour and chemical Control: VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), Formaldehyde and other dangerous chemicals/gases
Charcoal is carbon. “Activated” charcoal is charcoal that has been treated with oxygen to open up millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms, resulting in highly porous charcoal with surface areas of 300-2,000 square metres per gram. These so-called active, or activated, charcoals are widely used to ADSORB odorous or coloured substances from gases or liquids.
The word ‘adsorb’ is important here. When a material adsorbs something, it attaches to it by chemical attraction. The huge surface area of activated charcoal gives it countless bonding sites. When certain chemicals pass next to the carbon surface, they attach to the surface and are trapped.
Activated charcoal is good at trapping other carbon-based impurities ("organic" chemicals), as well as things like chlorine
Gas/Odour Control: pets, musky smells, cooking odours, paint odours,off-gassing from plastics, new carpets, smog, fumes, industrial pollution, tobacco smoke and general air pollution
IQAir GC VOC Cartridges (100% granular activated carbon)
IQAir's activated carbon is oxygen activated for a maximum proportion of micropores.
It is these optimised micropores that allow for maximum removal activity at the gaseous pollutant levels typically encountered in home, office and light commercial environments. Conventional air cleaners use gas control media based only on a purely physical filtration process, such as activated carbon and zeolite.
However, no oxygen or ozone is generated, since the process is media based only.
It is a broadspectrum gas and odour control.
