PRODUCT BULLETIN
208C 6x12
Coconut Activated Carbon
Description Specifications 208C 6x12
208 C is a high quality carbon manufactured from quality coconut Ash, wt% 5 (max)
shells by high temperature steam activation under rigidly controlled
Moisture (As Packaged), wt% 5 (max)
conditions. The physical characteristics of 208 C, including its high
microporosity, superior hardness, and low dust make it versatile Hardness Number 97 (min)
choice for many vapor phase applications. The carbon is especially
Carbon Tetrachloride, wt% 60 (min)
effective for removing weakly adsorbed compounds and for reducing
emissions to trace levels. It has a high retentivity for adsorbed 6 US Mesh [3.35mm], wt% 8 (max)
species, compared to competitive products. <12 US Mesh [1.70mm] (PAN), wt% 5 (max)
Features
• Coconut carbon Design Considerations
• Low ash content The design of an activated carbon adsorption system is dependent on
• High mechanical strength the adsorbate type, influent concentration, temperature, flow rate,
performance objective, relative humidity and other factors. Calgon
Benefits Carbon can help evaluate the suitability of activated carbon to satisfy
• High hardness relative to other raw materials specific needs and assist in the design of an adsorption system.
In addition to the supply of activated carbon, Calgon Carbon offers
• Pore structure provides a wide range of contaminant
adsorption systems and carbon reactivation services to meet
removal capabilities
particular treatment objectives.
• Hardness and abrasion resistance that is required for thermal
