The micro-pores in the coconut shell variety are smaller than the hardwood coal based variety (also called bituminous). Many aquarium users prefer bituminous (hardwood) based activated carbons as the larger contaminants will also be removed by the larger pore structure of this variety. So basically if your main concern is chlorines, chlorides and chemicals, etc, then this coconut shell based carbon is a good choice. Otherwise bituminous based carbon is recommended. **Q: I want to make my own room/refrigerator deodorizers. Is this the stuff I need, please?** A: Yes, you are correct. The carbon will remove the odor and contaminants from the air that comes in contact with it. This is why a shallow dish with a larger surface area is optimal. Stirring the carbon every few days will also help to make sure that fresh particles stay in contact with the air. **Q: What material inside bag and cover material would i need to put the product in as a hanging room/closet/car deoderizer?** A: Nylon stockings...just cut them...or nylon peds. **Q: Can this be used with a charcoal filter for smoking a bong** A: It depends on the type of filter and the mesh (screen) size of your screen material. This carbon is 8x16 mesh, which is about the size of coarse coffee grounds. If the holes in your retaining screen are too large, the carbon will pass through. If too small, it will limit the airflow. The proper size screen material for 8x16 carbon would be cheesecloth or even standard screen door material. Are you using a commercial filter or a custom made filter?
