FILTRATION MEDIA : MTBE REMOVAL CARBON

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

MTBE REMOVAL CARBON is designed specifically for the removal of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) from groundwater . It is available as a coal based or coconut shell based product. The pore structure of MTBE is designed for increased capacity for trace and weakly adsorbed organics such as MTBE. Studies have shown that its capacity for MTBE significantly exceeds that of standard carbon. As the cost of MTBE exceeds standard GAC we recommend the use of traditional GAC filters upstream when other more easily adsorbed compounds are present.
