Calgon Carbon Corporation products

WPC carbon is a virgin, powdered activated carbon (PAC) specifically designed for use in the treatment of potable water. WPC meets all applicable AWWA standards per specification B-600 and is certified to ANSI/NSF Standard 61 for use in potable water treatment.

SGL 8x30 is a granular activated carbon designed to efficiently purify and/or decolorize many aqueous and organic liquids. Its particle size of 8x30 mesh has been selected to give optimum adsorption characteristics and low resistance to flow with liquids of high viscosity.

The Calgon Carbon Corporation DG gold recovery carbon family of products are coconut-shell-based granular activated carbons specifically designed for gold recovery operations. DG was developed to be a consistent high performance, high activity gold recovery carbon product line. The activated carbon`s ability to achieve high gold loadings and the relative ease with which they can be stripped enables gold processors to obtain the highest possible yields from ores with high silver/gold ratios, carbonaceous ores, and ores containing other metals that complex with cyanide; for example, copper and nickel.

PWA is a powdered activated carbon with low acid soluble iron content. It is specifically designed for use with low pH liquids or when a low metal/ash leachable activated carbon is desired. The product is acid washed during the manufacturing process resulting in a product with very low acid soluble iron content. PWA powdered carbon has a particle size that provides rapid rates of adsorption and filtration. PWA is manufactured by high temperature steam activation from select grades of bituminous coal to produce a product of high density. PWA provides the benefits of fast filtration, low product retention, easy wettability and minimum dusting characteristics. This product complies with the requirements for activated carbon as defined by the Food Chemicals Codex (FCC) (7th Edition) published by the U.S. Pharmacopeia.

CPG LF is a granular activated carbon with a low acid soluble iron content that is designed for the purification and decolorization of many aqueous and organic liquids. It can be used efficiently in either fixed or moving beds. The particle size of 12 x 40 mesh has been selected to give a high rate of adsorption and low resistance to flow with liquors of medium viscosity. CPG LF is produced with virtually no fines or dust. CPG LF is made from selected grades of bituminous coal combined with suitable binders to give superior hardness and long life. Produced under rigidly controlled conditions by high temperature steam activation, this carbon provides high surface area, large pore volume, high density and a pore structure optimal for the adsorption of color bodies and odor molecules from solution.
