Powder activated carbon (PAC)

Here are some common ORGANOSORB® powder activated carbon applications:

• To treat small batches;
• In applications where only partial treatment is desired, like in hydrolysed vegetable protein purification;
• In applications with high flow rates and low carbon dosage to avoid capital expense;
• For seasonal applications like taste and odour control in drinking water.

Using powder activated carbon always results in spent or used carbon that cannot be recycled, thus creating chemical waste. Today, many users are abandoning the traditional use of powdered activated carbon as a disposable chemical. They follow the modern tendency towards recycling and waste minimisation, thereby reducing the use of the world's resources. Our activated carbon specialists are fully committed to helping users switch from powder activated carbon to continuous adsorption processes with mobile systems such as the MOBICON® , AIRCON® and fixed bed systems like the FILTRAFIX®.
