granular activated carbon for water treatment

Granular coal based activated carbon IV-900

Product Introduction

IV-900 is a medium activity granular activated carbon manufactured by steam

activation from selected grades of bituminous coal. The perfect balance between adsorption and transport pores provide optimum performance in a wide range of water treatment applications. The product is a high density adsorbent and provides maximum volume activity. The material is water washed during manufacture and there f o re wets rapidly. The excellent hardness and mechanical strength ensures negligible losses during backwashing, air scouring and multiple reactivations.
