CARBSORB 20 BITUMINOUS COAL ACTIVATED CARBON
Carbsorb™ 20 is cost-effective bituminous coal-based granular activated carbons offered by Calgon
Carbon Corporation for liquid phase applications.
Carbsorb™ 20 features an adsorption capacity that allows for effective removal of organic contaminants,
taste, and odor. The bituminous coal base produces a product with high hardness ensuring excellent
resistance to abrasion with a product mesh size that allows for limited pressure drop.
The following are typical design parameters for Carbsorb™ 20 for organics removal:
• Surface loading rate 2–6 gpm/ft2
• Backwash bed expansion 20%
Pallet quantity - 70 bags per pallet

OLC 12X30 COCONUT SHELL ACTIVATED CARBON
OLC 12x30 is a coconut activated carbon for the removal of dissolved organic contaminants from water,
wastewater and process liquids. These contaminants include taste and odor compounds, organic color,
total organic carbon (TOC) and industrial chemicals such as chlorinated solvents (TCE, PCE). The pore
structure enables it to be used for adsorption of both high and low molecule weight impurities from
waters and liquids. This carbon is especially effective for adsorbing trace organic compounds such as
vinyl chloride, methylene chloride, MTBE and THM’s/disinfection by-products. OLC 12x30 is certified to
NSF/ANSI 61 standard.

HPC SUPER 8X30 BITUMINOUS CARBON
HPC Series of virgin coal-based granular activated carbons are specifically designed to provide a
rapid rate of adsorption and low resistance to flow with liquids of low to medium viscosities. These
granular activated carbons are used for purification and decolorization in a wide range of aqueous and
organic liquid applications such as vodka and spirits, dry cleaning, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and
municipal. With a lower density as compared to typical coal based carbons, the HPC products have the
advantage of a lower cost per unit volume.
Features / Benefits
• Reduced contact time due to very fast diffusion kinetics and large volume of transport pores
• High surface area and large pore sizes provide excellent decolorization and high loading capacity
• HPC products are Kosher certified and meet the requirements of Food Chemicals Codex (FCC)
• Certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 61 and meets or exceeds AWWA standards per specification B-600
Pallet quantity - 70 bags per pallet

Bituminous Coal Activated Carbon
Bituminous Coal which is crushed, sized and processed in low temperature bakers followed by hightemperature furnaces. The “activation” process develops the pore structure of the carbon. Through
adjustments in the activation process, pores of the required size for a particular purification application
are developed. 20 x 50 mesh Size.
