Coal based Granular Activated Carbon is a virgin activated carbon in granular form, which is produced from the finest grades of bituminous coal or anthracite coal. It is ideal for many liquid phase applications, including the removal of organics from water streams and etc. Certain grades are suitable for drinking water and food grade applications.
Coal based Granular Activated Carbon is a virgin activated carbon in granular form, which is produced from the finest grades of bituminous coal or anthracite coal. The adsorptive capacity of granular activated carbon makes it ideal for removing a variety of contaminants from water, air, liquids, and gases to improve taste, odor, and color. Typical GAC applications are municipal and environmental water treatment, waste gas treatment, mercury removal in industrial gasses, food and beverage, metal recovery, and even medicinal use. Additionally, various particle sizes of GAC is optimal for use in vapor and liquid adsorption applications.For general filtration purposes, our coal based activated carbon, with its intermediate pore structure, would be the best choice.
