About Bone Char
Bone char is different from activated carbon because it contains both carbon surface area and hydroxyapatite lattice surface area. It is a carbonaceous adsorbent made from treated and carbonized selected grades of animal bone.
The provided product information states that bone char may be used in water filtration to reduce organic and inorganic species, color bodies, fluoride, and certain heavy metals.
