Acid-Washed Granular Activated Carbon From Coconut Shell
GC 8x30SAW is a virgin activated carbon which is granular in form. Made from selected grades of coconut shell and then acid washed, it is ideal for many liquid phase applications including the removal of organics from water streams. Its superior level of hardness and low level of impurities make it cleaner than most other carbons and gives it longer life expectancy.

CAUTION!
Wet activated carbon removes oxygen from air causing a severe hazard to workers inside carbon vessels. Confined space/low oxygen procedures should be put in place before any entry is made. Such procedures should comply with all applicable Local, State and Federal guidelines.
