Acid Washed Granular Activated Carbon is a virgin acid washed activated carbon which is granular in form, made from the finest grades of bituminous coal and then acid washed to remove soluble mineral constituents from the matrix of the activated carbon, resulting in a high purity adsorbent.
60Acid Washed Granular Activated Carbon is a virgin acid washed activated carbon which is granular in form, made from the finest grades of bituminous coal and then acid washed to remove soluble mineral constituents from the matrix of the activated carbon, resulting in a high purity adsorbent. It is ideal for many high grade liquid phase applications. It has superior adsorptive capacity and low level of ash, it is cleaner than most other carbons. Certain grades are suitable for drinking water and food grade applications.
