Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) locally manufactured from lcoally grown macadamia nut shells through steam
activation. The resulting high-density carbon structure with a highly developed bimodal meso- and micro-porous structure allows for the adsorption of a range of molecular sizes, making this carbon ideal for a broad range of water treatment applications. Due to this unique structure, this premium grade GAC bridges the gap between conventional coal and coconut carbons and may be used as an effective alternative to either. This product is ideally suited for professional water treatment applications.
Use in pressure filter vessels or in refillable cartridges as an alternative to imported, single-use carbon block or GAC filter cartridges. One 5kg bucket will refill 3-4 20x4.5inch refillable cartridges.
