Activated carbon is a form of carbon processed or "activated" to increase its' surface area for adsorption or chemical reactions. It is produced from source materials such as nutshells, peat, wood, lignite, coal and petroleum pitch.
Activated carbon is produced in powder, granular and pellet forms with various sizes and treatments available for a large range of industrial and commercial air and liquid applications.
Some of these applications are gas purification, metal extraction, water purification, sewage treatment, air filtration, removal of volatile organic compounds, medical applications, chemical purification and Mercury scrubbing.
Filter Resources can provide activated carbon in bags, drums and supersacks to meet the purification requirements of
petrochemical, refining and municipal applications.
Key features and benefits:
• Media of high quality activated carbon
• Complete full range of filters – standard and customized
• Reliable performance and proven high adsorption capacity
• Air/liquid-tight construction, modular and flexible assembly
• Variety of carbon grades available
• Maximum media utilization for longer lifetime of sorbent charge
• Longer life cycle operating and lower maintenance costs
