Cavity Filters
Some filters are filled with activated carbon (rather than combining with cellulose acetate). This is a less common type of filter than Dalmatian filters.

Other Uses
Activated carbon is also used in small, porous capsules that can be inserted into other smoking devices, such as pipes and holders to perform much the same function as incorporation into filter tips of cigarettes. The transportation and storage of tobacco is necessary from grower to market and, as a natural product, often requires the application of preservatives and pesticides. These are removed prior to processing at the conversion facility and the control of emission to the environment of these chemicals is effectively managed using activated carbon filtration devices. Similarly, where cigarette smoking is permitted inside buildings, increasingly the use of ‘smoker rooms’ in airports, restaurants and other public spaces incorporate activated carbon filtration into treatment devices. The rapid increase in the effectiveness and success of home air filtration is also generated by the desire to remove tobacco smoke in the home and office.
