Activated Carbon and Molecular Sieve for Air Purification Filter
Heycarbons filter cartridges are high-efficiency air purification adsorption materials composed of activated carbon and molecular sieve composite filter media.
This composite material combines the excellent adsorption capacity of activated carbon for VOCs and odor gases with the selective adsorption properties of molecular sieves for moisture and some small-molecule polar gases. It can simultaneously achieve functions such as odor removal, VOC removal, and humidity control.
Due to its good dynamic adsorption performance, stability, and wide applicability, this type of composite filter media has been widely used in air purification equipment, HVAC systems, fresh air systems, and industrial air filtration.
Heycarbons Activated Carbon and Molecular Sieve Product
This kind of Heycarbons filter cartridge for air purification uses activated carbon and molecular sieves as fillers. Next, we will introduce activated carbon and molecular sieve product separately.
Activated carbon used in filter cartridges
The filter cartridge uses 1.5mm pelletized activated carbon from coal, which has low pressure drop, high strength, and is not easily pulverized. Bulk density: 400-520kg/m3.
Activated carbon can be functionally modified by impregnating or loading specific catalysts according to the characteristics of different pollutants, thereby enhancing its selective adsorption performance and improving the removal efficiency of target contaminants.

Molecular sieve used in filter cartridges
Heycarbons uses the molecular sieve, commonly found in air filters. Its bulk density is not less than 600-650 kg/m3.
Can also provide molecular sieves with different pore sizes, such as 3A, 4A, 5A and 13X. Choose the appropriate type based on the customer’s purpose.

Activated carbon and molecular sieves can also be adjusted according to customer needs and process conditions to achieve optimal adsorption efficiency. Contact Heycarbons for gas filter media selection and cartridge design support.
How Does Activated Carbon and Molecular Sieve Work?
Coal activated carbon has well-developed micropores and mesopores, stronger hydrophobic organic affinity, and π–π interactions with aromatic molecules, enabling it to efficiently adsorb medium and large molecules such as VOCs and benzene, as well as various organic odors (H2S, NH3, amines).
On the other hand, molecular sieves exhibit excellent selective adsorption capabilities for moisture and polar small molecules (including formaldehyde).
The combined use of these two materials enables the synergistic purification of multiple air pollutants.
Work Principle of Activated Carbon and Molecular Sieve in Filter Cartridge
The working principle of the activated carbon and molecular sieve filter composite material is as follows:
1. Molecular sieve preferentially dehumidifies
Without molecular sieves, moisture in the air will occupy the pores of activated carbon before pollutants, thus reducing its adsorption efficiency for organic pollutants such as VOCs.
Molecular sieves can first adsorb moisture from the air, reduce system humidity, and improve the adsorption efficiency of subsequent activated carbon.
2. Activated carbon adsorption
After the humidity is reduced, the activated carbon can fully utilize its adsorption performance, efficiently removing benzene, toluene, oil vapors, smoke, organic solvents, and various odorous gases from the air, thereby improving air cleanliness and the quality of the environment.
Activated Carbon and Molecular Sieve for Air Purification Filter Application
Activated carbon molecular sieve filter cartridges are primarily used to adsorb and remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs), formaldehyde, benzene compounds, and various odorous gases from the air.
Leveraging the powerful adsorption capacity of activated carbon and the selective adsorption characteristics of molecular sieves for specific small molecules, these filter elemnets offer excellent purification effects against indoor air pollution, smoke, cooking fumes, pet odors, and some acidic and alkaline gases.
After modification treatment, they can further assist in the removal of NH3, H2S, ozone, and some exhaust pollutants.

Heycarbons Activated Carbon and Molecular Sieve for Air Purification Filter
In practical applications, this type of filter cartridges is most commonly used in air purifiers and fresh air systems, such as for formaldehyde removal after new home renovations, indoor air purification, and central air conditioning and fresh air systems in public places like office buildings, shopping malls, hospitals, and schools. They are primarily responsible for filtering VOCs and odors from outdoor or indoor air, improving overall air quality.
In industrial settings, they are also frequently used for treating low-concentration VOC emissions from industries such as painting, printing, packaging, and electronics manufacturing, effectively adsorbing and purifying organic solvents such as benzene, toluene, esters, and isopropanol.
Meanwhile, activated carbon and molecular sieve filter cartridges are also widely used in deodorization equipment in garbage stations, sewage treatment plants, and public toilets to reduce odors caused by ammonia, sulfides, and other pollutants.
Furthermore, these filter cartridges are also widely used in the field of in-vehicle air purification, especially in new energy vehicles, primarily to address VOCs, plastic odors, and formaldehyde released from new car interiors, resulting in cleaner and more comfortable air inside the vehicle.
