Granular Activated Carbon
GC 4x8B is a virgin activated carbon. Derived from the finest grades of low ash coal, it is granular in form. Its high activity and surface area makes it ideal for most vapor phase applications including general odor removal and the adsorption of organic contaminants from vapor streams.
