8x16 Coconut Shell Granular Activated Carbon

8x16 Coconut Shell Granular Activated Carbon – Liquid Filtration Media

Our 8x16 Coconut Shell Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is a high-performance liquid phase filtration media engineered for applications requiring strong adsorption capacity with reduced pressure drop. The larger 8x16 mesh size offers improved flow characteristics compared to finer grades, making it ideal for high-volume water treatment systems and industrial liquid processing.

Manufactured from premium coconut shell and steam-activated, this carbon features a highly developed microporous structure that effectively removes chlorine, chloramines, VOCs, pesticides, herbicides, PFAS compounds, and organic contaminants from drinking water and process streams. Its durable granule structure provides excellent resistance to attrition, helping extend service life in demanding filtration environments.

The 8x16 mesh is especially well-suited for systems that require deeper carbon beds, increased contact time, and minimized backpressure, including pressure vessels, gravity filters, and large carbon tanks.

Features:

• 8x16 mesh size for high-flow liquid phase systems

• Coconut shell base with high microporosity

• Excellent removal of chlorine, VOCs, PFAS, and taste/odor compounds
