Carlson Carlcarb FiltrationBecause of its outstanding adsorptive properties, activated carbon plays a critical role in a diverse range of applications. Probably best known as a de-colourising and/or de-odourising agent, activated carbon has significant usage within the beverage industry.
All carbons have a range of the three pore sizes but will exhibit significantly different proportions of each due to their different origin materials and activation process. Carlson’s range of CarlCarb filter media incorporating a wide range of powdered activated carbons - available in both sheet and lenticular form – provides customers with the scope to choose the correct carbon for their specific application. The benefits include: • More effective use of carbon (fewer kg of carbon required) • Elimination of need for loose activated carbon powder or granules • Elimination of secondary filtration to remove activated carbon from process fluid • No messy filter cake handling or disposal • Minimises potential for addition error • Easier and cheaper disposal of spent filter materials Pore sizes of carbons are generally classified as: Macropores – above 50 nm diameter Mesopores – 2-50 nm diameter Micropores - <2 nm diameter
