Activated Carbon Granular – Coal-Based Steam Activated 25 KG (IV600)
The Activated Carbon Granular – Coal-Based Steam Activated 25 KG – IV600 offers high‑quality filtration media ideal for industrial and commercial water treatment systems. With a coal‑based steam activation process, this granular activated carbon (GAC) delivers excellent adsorption of chlorine, organic contaminants, tastes and odours. Because it’s in a 25‑kg bag and made in India to high specification, it fits many filtration skid systems and media vessels.
Why Choose This Granular Activated Carbon – IV600 Grade?
This media grade features a high iodine value (600–650 IV) and a strong hardness rating, which means longer service life and better performance. Moreover, the coal‑based steam activation creates a porous structure that offers a large surface area for the adsorption of dissolved organics, VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and other treatment targets. In addition, by selecting a 25 kg bag you get a cost‑effective volume for medium‑sized systems.

Applications & Benefits
- Use in water treatment for chlorine removal, taste & odour control, and organic removal. Water Purification Systems
- Suitable for groundwater purification, pool water polishing, and large‑scale filtration media vessels. Water Purification Systems
- Because the media is coal‑based and steam activated, it has strong adsorption capacity and durability under high flow or heavy duty conditions.
- By choosing this GAC grade IV600, you benefit from extended service life and lower replacement frequency compared to lower‑grade carbon.
Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Pre‑rinse the media after loading into your vessel to remove fines and carbon dust.
- Ensure proper backwash and flow rates according to your vessel manufacturer’s specification.
- Monitor pressure drop across the media bed to know when to replace or regenerate.
- Keep records of water quality (chlorine, organics, taste) before and after media to evaluate performance.
- Replace the carbon when breakthrough of tastes or odours occurs, or when ash/moisture limits are reached.
