Active carbon AquaSorb 2000, bag 25 kg

Product detailed description

Active Carbon AquaSorb 2000 is used as a filter filling for carbon filters. It is granular activated carbon produced by steam activation of hard coal. It represents an ideal balance between adsorptive and transport pores, providing optimal performance across a wide range of water treatment applications.

It is suitable for water treatment, beverage production, adsorption of odor and taste contaminants, ion exchangers, etc. 

Activated granular carbon is made from special types of bituminous coal. Activation occurs through a controlled thermal process that creates an adsorptive surface and the porous structure of carbon, which ensures effective adsorption of chlorine and organic compounds with both low and high molecular weight. The result is activated carbon with high density, mechanical strength, and good abrasion resistance.
Active carbon requires regular backwashing to ensure the removal of mechanical particles and the rejuvenation of the filter layer.
During initial startup, this filter material requires multiple backwashes in order to remove air and dust from the mass. It is recommended to perform the filter backwash at least 3 times for 10-15 minutes.

This type of carbon is intended for contact with water that is used for drinking purposes (according to UNI ISO EN 125915-1:2004).

The price is 62.4 CZK/l excluding VAT = 75.5 CZK/l including VAT (154 CZK including VAT per 1 kg). The stated price 3,850 CZK is for one bag (25 kg = 51 l).

In the case of orders of 500 kg or more, an individual discount on the entire delivery is possible.

In the case of ordering a smaller volume of activated carbon, starting from 1 kg you can purchase here.
