Activated Carbons
GC 4x8B & GC 4x10B
Granular Activated Carbon
GC 4x8B and GC 4x10B are virgin activated carbons. Derived from bituminous coal, they are granular in form. Their high activity and surface area makes them ideal for most vapor phase applications including general odor removal and the absorption of organic contaminants from vapor streams.

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.
