Silver Impregnated Carbon

One of the main applications of granular activated carbon is the purification of water. Its function is the retention of organic contaminants and the elimination, by chemical reaction, of the free residual chlorine that remains in the water after the disinfection stage. In order to inhibit bacterial growth, the surface of the carbon is impregnated with 0.1% metallic silver to make carbon bacteriostatic using ionic silver to enable it to bind strongly with carbon surface to make it suitable to function and purify large volumes of water. - High efficiency - Negligible silver leaching - No health hazards to humans - No loss in Bacteriostatic property up to 6000 litres water - Available in Granular and block form

HiraChem is your specialist supplier of Granular Activated Carbon. Pure carbon which is gold recovery granular activated carbon is coconut-shell-based granular activated carbons specially designed for gold recovery operations. GR was developed to be a consistent, high performance, high activity gold recovery carbon product line. The activated carbon's ability to achieve high gold loadings and the relative ease with which they can be stripped enables gold processors to obtain the highest possible yields from ores with high silver/gold ratios, carbonaceous ores and ores containing other metals that complex with cyanide; for example, copper and nickel. In Carbon in Leach (CIL), Carbon in Pulp (CIP), and Carbon in Column (CIC) circuits, it is essential that the activated carbon employed provides excellent process performance, minimal losses due to attrition, and minimal maintenance problems. Through the years, Pure carbon has continually upgraded its manufacturing processes to ensure that it continues to provide high quality products. Steps have been added to the manufacturing process which have improved the carbon's resistance to abrasion and reduced its tendency to plug retention screens in adsorption tanks. Platelets (flatter granules which are relatively long and wide while not particularly thick) can end up oriented in such a manner that they pass through the retention screens. This results in a loss of gold-containing carbon, which directly affects percent recovery and pro stability. In order to have a product that has less tendency to plug screens with "platelets," GR is also processed through a vee-wire screen and de�­dusted. GR products are manufactured specifically for gold adsorption. As a result, the quality of the carbon is extremely consistent and tailored to gold recovery applications. GR activated carbon enable the extraction of even trace amounts of gold from every ton of ore, even when processing average or low-grade ores. Pure Carbon expertise in activated carbon application technology is a valuable resource for designing and optimizing.

Whetlerite carbons are Cu, Cr and Ag impregnated activated carbons used for respiratory protection against super toxic nerve, blister, blood and choking agents in the military. Whetlerite carbons are used in nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) filters for collective protection, and in NBC canisters, as part of individual gas masks, for personal protection. Flexus Global exports impregnation of active carbon and whetlerite carbon to various countries.

Impregnated activated carbons assist with removal of odorous sulphur compounds in sewage pumping stations, personal protection respirators, and removal of corrosive gases from air intake systems specifically in electronics manufacturing facilities, museums etc.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a very toxic gas with TLV of 35 ppm and it is to be removed from the air in mines, enclosed spaces, fire breaking places. Active carbon can not hold the CO due to physisorption and therefore palladium impregnated carbon was developed which became even more active due to high RH. This again one of the very specialized carbon exported by us for air purification and CO removal. It almost works like the turn over catalyst and offers very high protection against CO. This carbon has High Surface area providing almost offers endless protection against CO, Works in any RH but becomes more active at high RH.

Formaldehyde and other aldehydes are the main pollutants in indoor air. Formaldehydes are mainly obtained from paint, polymerizing plates, bindings, chemical fibers and even cigarette smoke Activated carbon adsorbents are the most promising adsorbents when adsorption of traces of gases and vapors is concerned. Our impregnated activated carbons offer effective chemisorption of formaldehyde from air.
