Carbofil
Powdered activated carbons (PAC) play a critical role in a vast and diverse range of applications. Decolorisation, deodorisation, and the removal of other trace impurities are among the most common applications where PAC is widely used in the pharmaceutical, food, and beverage industries.
Due to their unique adsorption characteristics, PAC is also used in biotechnological processing and the production of fine chemicals. To meet these various demands, there are a large number of activated carbons available, offering different levels of activation, molecular structure, and purity levels.
Using activated carbon in an immobilized form (e.g., in a lenticular module) offers significant benefits in handling, cleaning, and time (cost savings) compared to using PAC. FILTROX CARBOFIL™ PLUS brings out all the benefits of immobilized activated carbon versus PAC. Furthermore, the adsorption efficiency of immobilized activated carbon is higher than with an equivalent amount of bulk PAC.

Features and Benefits
Benefits
- CARBOFIL™ PLUS modules offer up to 33% more carbon capacity at the same footprint as standard carbon modules.
- The CARBOFIL™ PLUS module offers increased contact time with the immobilized activated carbon.
- The totally enclosed construction of the system is ideal where hygiene is important or conditions are hazardous.
- CARBOFIL™ eliminates the need for loose PAC or granules, resulting in more effective carbon use (less carbon required).
