Carbon Filter

A carbon filter for chemical treatment.

Notes

The Carbon Filter is a crafted item used for chemical treatment, categorized as a Catalyst and Product. It weighs 300 grams and stacks up to 100, making it manageable for storage and transport in industrial setups. A practical tip is that because it is a crafted Catalyst, ensuring a steady production chain for Carbon Filters supports your chemical processing lines and prevents bottlenecks in higher-tier material refinement.
