Carbon Vessel

Description

Activated Carbon is used to filter harmful chemicals from contaminated water and air. It is composed of black granules of coal and other carbon-rich materials. As contaminated water or air flows through activated carbon, the contaminants sorb (stick) to the surface of the granules and are removed from the water or air.

PRM supplies 4mm (4×10) Vapor Phase Carbon, designed for the removal of organic contaminants from industrial and remediation air stream applications, and 8 x 30 Liquid Phase Carbon to decolorize and remove odor-causing impurities as well as adsoption of trace contaminants from groundwater. PRM can supply virgin and/or reactivated carbon for all of your environmental remediation projects.
