12x40S – Coconut Shell-Based Granular Activated Carbon

12X40S is a virgin activated carbon, which is granular in form. Made from selected grades of coconut shell, it is ideal for many liquid phase applications including the removal of organics from water streams. Its superior level of hardness makes it cleaner than most other carbons and gives it longer life expectancy.
