A filter for a water-purification device includes a filter housing having a water inlet and a water outlet defined therein, and a filter member disposed in the filter housing to purify water introduced through the inlet and supply the purified water to the outlet. The filter member includes a carbon block produced by mixing 40 to 50% by weight of titanium oxide, 30 to 40% by weight of activated carbon, and 18 to 23% by weight of binder with each other.

Filter for water-purification device and water-purification device including the same

A method is described for treating activated carbon configured to be included in a carbon block of a filter for a water purifier. The method includes: inserting the activated carbon into a chamber; injecting ozone generated from an ozone generator into the chamber, and applying pressure to the chamber; and modifying a surface of the activated carbon inserted into the chamber based on applying the pressure to the chamber that holds the ozone and the activated carbon.

Method for modifying surface of activated carbon and filter for water purifier

Disclosed is a filter for a water-purification device, the filter including a filter housing having a water inlet and a water outlet defined therein; and a filter member disposed in the filter housing to purify water introduced through the inlet and supply the purified water to the outlet, wherein the filter member includes a carbon block produced by mixing 40 to 50% by weight of titanium oxide, 30 to 40% by weight of activated carbon, and 18 to 23% by weight of binder with each other. Further, a water-purification device including the filter is disclosed.

A filter for a water purifier includes a filter housing that defines an inlet and an outlet, and a filter module disposed inside the filter housing and configured to purify water received through the inlet and supply purified water to the outlet. The filter module includes a carbon block that includes a mixture of: activated carbon having a weight corresponding to 40 to 50% of a weight of the mixture, a binder having a weight corresponding to 5 to 15% of the weight of the mixture, iron hydroxide having a weight corresponding to 10 to 20% of the weight of the mixture, and titanium oxide having a weight corresponding to 30 to 40% of the weight of the mixture.
