Abstract

An electrochemical filter which consists of a fibrous electrically conducting material to which there are bonded microscopic particles of carbon or active charcoal. A variety of fibers can be used: carbon fibers, graphite fibers, fibers of inert metal etc. A process for the production of such filters where the particles are bonded to the fibers by a pyrolyzable binder which is pyrolyzed. Electrochemical separation and filter devices based on such filter media.
