Powder Activated Carbon

Product overview

Powder Activated Carbon is a finely divided adsorbent used for liquid-phase purification where powdered carbon dosing is appropriate. The supplied files document coconut-shell VS 55 and wood-based R4W10 grades with different properties. SWFI can review the application and help match the product to the required duty. Final selection should be verified against the applicable manufacturer datasheet and actual site conditions.
