Activated Carbon Treatment

Granular activated carbon for dechlorination, odour and organics removal.

The problem

Free chlorine, organics, colour and odour in feed water damage RO membranes, foul resins and contaminate product streams. Chlorine in particular destroys polyamide RO membranes on contact.

What the treatment needs

An activated carbon filter sized for the flow and chlorine load, filled with good-quality granular activated carbon with adequate adsorption capacity, supported on a proper gravel bed.

Typical industries

  • RO plant operators
  • Food & beverage
  • Pharmaceutical
  • Power plants
  • Textile processing

Practical considerations

• Carbon has a finite adsorption life — plan periodic replacement based on chlorine breakthrough or organics load.

• Iodine value and mesh size should match the duty; ask us with your application details.

• Spent carbon disposal and fresh refills can be planned together to minimise downtime.
