| Aqua Sorb | | Granular coal based activated carbon | | Product Introduction | | AquaSorb® is a highly economical, medium activity granular activated carbon manufactured by steam activation from selected grades of bituminous coal. The perfect balance between adsorption and transport pores provides optimum perf o rmance in a wide range of water treatment applications. The product is a high density adsorbent and provides maximum volume activity. The high hardness and mechanical strength ensures negligible losses during backwashing, air scouring and multiple reactivations (consult technical bulletin TB-308/R/ENG for more information ). | | | Product Key Features Benefits
