GC 20X50S

granular activated carbon

GC 20X50S is a virgin activated carbon, which is granular in form. Made from select grades of coconut shell, it is ideal for many liquid phase applications including the removal of organics from water streams, and the decolorization of liquids. Its superior level of hardness makes it cleaner than most other carbons and gives it longer life expectancy.
