Product Information

Coconut shell carbon, because it is comprised of predominantly microporous structures, is a superior performing product for the removal chlorine, chlorinated solvents and VOCs. It is also harder and can stand up to more backwashing than bituminous coal based carbon. Its drawbacks lie in its higher price and its inability to absorb hevier organics. 12 x 30 Mesh. Granular Activated Carbon constitutes an excellent filtration media, having a high density with a balanced pore-structure for more efficient absorption. One of the most common applications for Activated Carbon is the removal of the undesirable taste present in many chlorinated water supplies. This taste is the result of the formation of chlorophenols, often present in raw waters which contain phenols and were subsequently treated with chlorine. These phenols are usually the product of industrial wastes. Even 0.1 ppm of chlorophenols can result in an undesirable taste. Activated Carbon has for many years been successful in the absorption of orthochlorophenol and the removal of free chlorine from water supplies. The end product is clean, fresh water, with no objectionable taste characteristics.
