CARBOFIL
Product Description

Powdered activated carbons (PAC) play a critical role in a vast and diverse range of applications. Decolorization, deodorization or the removal of other trace impurities are
amongst the most common applications where PAC are widely used in the pharmaceutical as well as in the food & beverage industries. Due to their unique adsorption characteristics, PAC are also used in biotechnological processing and the production of fine chemicals. In order 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 depth filter sheet or lenticular module) offers significant benefits in handling, cleaning and time (cost savings), compared to using PAC. FILTROX CARBOFIL ™ products bring 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. Activated carbon characterization Pore size distribution of a certain activated carbon is responsible for its specific adsorption pattern which is characterized
by iodine number, methylene blue adsorption and molasses number.

  • Whitepaper Using Depth filters for Cannabis Oil Production

    The use of depth filter sheets for the clarification and removal of chlorophyll in the production of CBD and related products has many advantages compared to the use of filter paper. Due to the thickness of the filter sheets the limited capacity to hold particles back increases the filtered volume per m2 at low costs. The activated carbon treatment takes out the chlorophyll and other odor and color influencing substances.
