Filter question

1. Can I reuse activated carbon if I rinse it with boiling water ?

I know I can just go and buy new ones but I need to clean my canister filter and I am a long way from the nearest fish store.

2. I have two canister filters, one is a Rena XP3 and the other a small Eheim canister filter.
I want to use the Rena as my filtration filter and the Eheim as a biological filter, only having crush
rock and bio material inside.

I have a 30G tank, does this sound like a good idea ?
