The proprietary process impregnates with the S2 form of sulfur only. The activated carbon has a high affinity for this form of sulfur and the sulfur is uniformly distributed throughout the carbon pores. These characteristics ensure superior performance in several areas:

Characteristics
  • Greater total capacity for mercury adsorption
  • Near virgin CCL4 activity of the impregnated carbon for superior organic removal
  • Greater stability of the mercuric sulfide formed on the carbon ensures that mercury will not leach into the environment from the spent carbon
  • Superior moisture resistance ensures product performance on high humidity waste streams
  • Superior temperature resistance ensures product performance at elevated temperatures
  • Improved adsorption kinetics allows for faster adsorption and less carbon is required on-line

Packaging is available in 1000lb. Bulk Bags. Other packaging is available upon request.

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.
