Description

The KI Impregnated Carbon is a 4 mm, pelletized carbon made from select grades of high quality coal, activated under rigid process control conditions to yield a strong, dense, very active product designed for vapor phase odor control application. This product is impregnated, double screened and dedusted in process and prior to packaging to assure a clean, hard, dust free product having a long service life. Its best performance is reached when some oxygen and water is present in the vapor.

Specifications

KI Content (wt. %) 2
Carbon Tetrachloride Activity (wt. %) 60 min.
Hardness Number 99% min.
Mean Particle Diameter (MPD) 4 mm, pellets
Apparent Density (g/ml) 0.470 to 0.510
Total Surface Area (N2 -- BET method) 1050 - 1150 m2/gm
Ignition Temperature (ASTM) 450°C
Typical H2S Capacity 0.03 g/cc

Pressure Drop

Since the product is dedusted, clean and is of uniform size, the pressure drop is low; at 50 ft./min., the pressure drop is 0.9"/ft. and at 70 FPM it is 1.4"/ft.

CAUTION: WET ACTIVATED CARBON DEPLETES OXYGEN FROM AIR.

Whenever workers enter a vessel containing carbon, all precautions must be taken since dangerously low levels of oxygen may be encountered. Atmosphere sampling and work procedures for potentially low oxygen areas should be followed.
