WPC - Powdered Activated Carbon

WPC powdered activated carbon is ideally suited for the removal of taste and odor-causing compounds such as geosmin and methylisoborneol (MIB), as well as herbicides and pesticides such as alachlor, atrazine and simazine, plus many other solution organic compounds. They can also be used in the treatment of industrial wastewaters and a number of process applications to remove refractory organic chemicals.

• Free flowing powdered activated carbon
• High grind

• Works well in wet or dry injection systems
• Enables rapid dispersion in water

• Iodine Number. : 800 mg/g (min)
• Moisture by Weight : 8% (max)
• Screen Size by Weight, US Sieve Series :
• Through 100 mesh : 99% (min)
• Through 200 mesh : 95% (min)
• Through 325 mesh :  90% (min)

Design Considerations
Powdered activated carbon is generally mixed with raw water in dosages ranging between 5 and 50 ppm. Longer mixing times result in lower doses. Similarly, higher activity carbons usually require lower doses. For the most cost-effective treatment, PAC should be fed at a point which allows the longest amount of contact time between the powdered activated carbon and the raw water.

Safety Message
Wet activated carbon preferentially removes oxygen from air. In closed or partially closed containers and vessels, oxygen depletion my reach hazardous levels. If workers are to enter a vessel containing carbon, appropriate sampling and work procedures for potentially low oxygen spaces should be followed, including all applicable Federal and State requirements.
