CHAR-CARB Activated Granular Carbon is made from selected coconut shells to insure positive quality control during the manufacturing process. Virgin raw material is activated thermally in a rotary kiln steam atmosphere. By maintaining strict quality control standards, high adsorption of odors and other contaminates from occupied air space can be achieved. CHAR-CARB can also be effectively used in most liquid phase applications to remove odors, tastes, chemicals and organic compounds.
