I rinse my carbon and GFO in my laundry sink using a fine stainless steel strainer that you would use for cooking. I rinse with RO/DI water from my resevoir to remove all the dust before adding it into my reactor.

I have a spare TLF reactor, unscrew dirty one & screw the clean one on. Then I can clean out the used dirty one and have it ready for the next change, I don't run carbon just GFO and it seems to work for me. Like the others I dump it all down the toilet.
