Overview
The UltraSorber-BC™ activated carbon manufactured from selected grades of bituminous coal ideally suited for VOC gas adsorption. possesses both a high surface area and a large internal pore volume. These properties give the carbon not only high VOC adsorption capacities, but also highly retentive for retaining and preventing the desorption of previously adsorbed organic compounds. Being manufactured from high rank coals results in an inherently low ash content, making these carbons ideally suited for critical gas phase adsorption applications.
Features
• Specifically manufactured from select grades of bituminous coal
• Excellent for applications from general odour abatement to solvent absorption and recovery
• High surface area and broad pore structure
• Less frequent changeouts = cost effective
• Lower pressure drops
• Packaged in bags, totes, and super sacs
Applications
• Solvent recovery operations
• Chemical process applications
• VOC control from air strippers, soil vapor extraction and air sparge systems
• Control of tank vent emissions
• HVAC
• Odor control
• As a substrate for odor control carbon manufacture and as a catalyst support
