{"product_id":"matrix-carbon-filter-media-1l","title":"Matrix Carbon Filter Media 1L","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMatrixCarbon is an activated carbon unlike any other. Formed as spherical beads from bituminous carbon sources, MatrixCarbon creates optimal water flow and contact. Because of its macroporous structure, MatrixCarbon is very effective at scavenging organic molecules from the water. It is also an extremely clean carbon with very low ash content, and the lowest phosphate of any carbon on the market. What this means is that you get a high-performing carbon that is extremely effective at removing organic pollutants and chemicals, both in rate of adsorption and duration of effective use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHigh efficiency spherical carbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eExtremely clean activated carbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLowest leachable phosphate level on market\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHigh removal capacity; large surface area\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhy Spherical Carbon?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSpherical pellets are ideal because they create a uniform media bed that maintains even water flow throughout, and they prevent the carbon particles from compacting together which can slow water flow and reduce the available surface area of the carbon. The spherical granules are sized to create maximum water contact without being small enough to escape filter bags. Thanks to MatrixCarbon’s hydrodynamic properties, more ash is washed from the carbon, making it one of the cleanest activated carbons available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAvailable in 7 Sizes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e100 mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e250 mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e500 mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Liter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2 Liters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4 Liters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e20 Liters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDirections\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e250 mL will easily treat 100 US gallons (~400 Liters).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUse in a filter bag or media reactor.
