  • USWF-GAC-CS1240AW is 12x40 mesh Acid Washed Coconut Shell Activated Carbon. All USWF Carbon is made from select grades of coconut shells and the acid washed for a high purity product. This carbon can be used with any loose media carbon filtration system. Refillable cartridges, Backwashing filters, and upflow media tanks.
    In properly designed systems this carbon will effectively remove unwanted taste and orders, chlorine, TCE, PCE, THM's, Phenols, pesticides, herbicides, detergents and more.

    Benefits of Acid Wash

    Washing activated carbon with acid enhances the carbon in a number of ways. Acid washing cleans the carbon of surface dust and carbon fines, reduces the ash content, and dissolves inorganic minerals like magnesium, silica, iron, nickel, copper, and other heavy metals off the carbon. By removing impurities the acid wash creates a clean, high purity carbon which improves its available surface area and pore structure, significantly improving the carbon's ability to adsorb contaminants.

    Trustworthy Quality

    USWF Carbon that is Prop. 65 compliant for drinking water applications, certified to ANSI/NSF Standard 61, and meets AWWA Standard B-604.
