CC60AW 20x50

Filtracarb® CC60AW is a granular activated carbon manufactured from specially selected grades of bituminous coal by a steam activation process. The material is manufactured under stringently controlled conditions to produce a porous adsorbent with a highly developed surface area.

The product is acid washed to reduce the soluble mineral content of the material for use where high purity streams are to be treated

  • Versatitle liquid phase adsorbent
  • High efficiency regeneration
  • Product readily water wets
  • Large surface area
  • Supplied to BS EN ISO 9001:2008
  • Conforms to BS EN 12915-1:2003
