Industrial Activated Carbon Filtration Systems

Activated Carbon Filter Systems

Complete Adsorption of Free Chlorine, Organic Compounds, Odor and Taste

Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) filtration operates primarily through physical and chemical adsorption. Boasting an immense internal surface area of 900 to 1100 m²/g, virgin coconut shell or mineral-based carbon captures dissolved organic impurities, trihalomethanes (THMs), pesticides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and free active chlorine.

Essential upstream of reverse osmosis and ion-exchange softeners to prevent irreversible oxidative degradation of polyamide membranes and resins.

Advantages & Features

  • High iodine number (900 - 1100 mg/g) virgin coconut or bituminous coal GAC media
  • 100% dechlorination to prevent irreversible polyamide membrane oxidation
  • Complete elimination of unpleasant odor, discoloration and chlorinated taste
  • Automatic periodic backwash preventing media compaction and channeling
  • Steam sanitizable or thermal wash options for food & pharmaceutical standards
  • FRP composite, 304/316 stainless steel or ebonite-lined vessel construction
