Some of RO water purification system used stage of minerals filter which is consists of coarse ball particles called "MT-T33-GAC-1020" there's no information about this medium. Any body has information of that kind of medium ?
Dear Mustafa,
They are used in post In-line filters contain coco nut shell which are design to reduce unwanted odor, taste, and chlorine, improved taste. Choice of polypropylene media used for sediment removal. In-line filters are an ideal choice of final polishing filter in home reverse osmosis drinking water systems, ice maker, and food service application. Martin GAC post In-line filter comply with NSF Standard.
Feature
Efficient removal of chlorine and organic chemicals
Improve the taste of water
Installation eliminates the need for additional filter housing
Competitively priced carbon filters
Ideal for f\residential and commercial applications
All in-line filters include a pre- and post-filter
Application
Pre and post RO
Refrigerator
Ice maker
l Drinking water purify

Thank you @Rafik Karaman, i just want the specific chemical elements of type "T33" of filter used in RO water system , do you mean that type has coco nut?
@Rafik Karaman, thank your for your useful information , best regards
I think theReverse Osmosis Membrane is the most important part of the system.
First I would never use unknown and uncertified filter media, if it's not certified to NSF Standards (NSF 61 for basic material safety, or to NSF 42, 53, or 58 for actual filtration ability) then you don't know what you're getting.
Secondly, GAC is the acronym for Granulated Carbon, most frequently from coconut shells in residential drinking water filters.
That said, what you showed is absolutely not GAC, those are mineral balls which are sometimes used after Reverse osmosis to add minerals back into the water (though not very well with those large course balls, not enough surface are to do it effectively). Maybe there's a GAC filter in the center under the mineral balls. GAC is often used after RO as a final polishing filter to remove residual VOC's and any taste from a RO storage tank.
In agreement with the people before, RO is the most important part. But just FYI if you don't change the Carbon Pre filter (up stream from the RO membrane) on time chlorine in the water will destroy the RO membrane and then let everything through.
