Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are chemicals that both vaporize into air and dissolve in water. VOCs are pervasive in daily life because they’re used in industry, agriculture, transportation, and day-to-day activities around the home. Once released into groundwater, many VOCs are persistent and can migrate to drinking-water supply wells.
Activated carbon filters are very effective for removing VOCs, due to their large surface area and an elaborate network of pores and micropores. This causes the VOC molecules to be physically attracted to activated carbon and held by it.
One sure way to safeguard your water supply is to install specialized VOC water filters in your house. Water filters, such as the ones that can be found here, use activated carbon treated with aluminium in a cutting edge new technological process to remove VOC from your water. Water filters can be installed on the waterline before it enters your home, preventing both ingestion and topical exposure to VOCs. Keep in mind air filters are also important to remove VOCs from entering your home.
