Air Processing Chemicals
Modern scuba air filtration systems utilize disposable, prepacked chemical cartridges. Some dive shops with older systems still prefer to repack their STEEL filter towers with bulk chemicals or to use repackable stainless liners within ALUMINUM towers. Aluminum housings should NEVER be free-packed because filter chemicals can react corrosively with the metal walls and weaken the tower. Repacking with bulk filtrants can be economical, although it is messy and time consuming when compared to throw-away cartridges. Also, free-packing must be done in a discrete manner and order or the filtration process will fail.
