IPK
Filtracarb® IPK is a powdered activated carbon manufactured from specially selected grades of coal at a production facility in Germany.
The material is manufactured under stringently controlled conditions by steam activation, to produce a porous adsorbent with a highly developed internal surface area, which is impregnated with Sulphuric Acid.
- Designed for flue gas treatment
- Highly developed pore structure
- Excellent heavy metal adsorption
- Optimum dioxin removal efficiency
- Supplied to BS EN ISO 9001:2008
