Granular Carbon
In the metal finishing industry, the most common problematic organic molecules come from oil contamination and breakdown products from electrolysis. When activated carbon is utilized properly, chemical process solutions remain clean and operate efficiently. JSA supplies Calgon Carbon to the metal finishing industry because of the following advantages:
- Calgon is the world’s largest manufacturer of granular activated carbon
- Calgon GW12x40 is uniformly activated throughout the whole granule, not just the outside, resulting in excellent adsorption
- High granular surface area – 900 sq. meters per gram – removes a wide range of dissolved organics over a long period of time
- Packaged conveniently in 58 lb. bags and on a 40 bag skid
- Stocked centrally in Addison, IL for prompt delivery
Description
Calgon Carbon offers a wide array of custom-engineered granular activated carbons for a broad range of manufacturing process and environmental applications.
The adsorptive capacity of granular activated carbon (GAC) makes it ideal for removing a variety of contaminants from metal finishing solutions. GAC is also an environmentally responsible product that can be reactivated through thermal oxidation and used multiple times for the same application.
