Στο παρακάτω άρθρο,ο συγγραφέας υποστηρίζει πως και για χλωραμίνες δεν κάνει "δουλειά" .Το έχει "ψάξει" κανένας;

"Activated Carbon Filters
Using the same technology as the activated carbon filtration used in many aquarium filters, Activated Carbon can be used to filter the water right from your tap. Many people use simple carbon filters on their kitchen tap, to remove nasty tastes and odors from their drinking water. The same filter units can be used to filter the water before adding it to the aquarium. Many of these tap filters only offically claim to remove the "taste and odor" of the chlorine, making no promise of how much chlorine is really removed. Other carbon filter units specifically claim to be able remove chlorine but the amount of chlorine they remove depends on the quality, size, and flow-rate of the filter, and the amount of chlorine in the tap water to begin with.

In addition to the effectiveness concerns regarding the removal of chlorine, is the issue of chloramine. Very few carbon filters can remove chloramine. The chlorine-ammonia bond prevents standard carbon from removing the chlorine. Some new carbon filter units are now using a special "Catalytic" Activated Carbon. This catalytic carbon can break the chlorine-ammonia bond, and absorb the chlorine. BUT! They leave the ammonia free, which we've already said is a bad thing. I've seen one tap-water filter that added a special ammonia absorbing compound (zeolite) in addition to the carbon. But zeolite has a fairly small ammonia absorbing capacity so it needs frequent replacement, and it isn't found in any common tap-water filters. Without the additional ammonia absorbing compounds, you must use some other treatment to remove the ammonia.

There are several other problems regarding the use of carbon filtration. First, the effectiveness of the chlorine removal is highly dependant on the flow rate. Filters will commonly list the recommended flow. One high-quality filter states "At 1 gpm (gallon per minute), with an input of 3ppm, the output will contain .5ppm".As you increase the water flow thru the filter, the effectiveness drops. Some filters contain flow-restrictors to prevent you from increasing the flow above the recommended. In either case, to allow effective filtering, your flow rate is limited.

Another problem is that the carbon filter can only remove a certain amount of chlorine. After the filter has treated that certain number of gallons, it's effectiveness is greatly reduced. Some of the more high-tech filters contain electronic monitors, that inform you when it's time to change the filter element. But if you keep using the filter past it's stated life, you are gambling with your fish's lives."
