Activated Carbon
1kg of Carbon = 2.15L of Carbon. E.g. 15kg Bag = 33L
These Activated Carbon Granules are a premium-grade, steam-activated filtration media made from sustainable coconut shell. Engineered for optimal performance in aquaculture and aquarium environments, these granules offer exceptional adsorption capabilities, helping to maintain clean, clear water and a healthy aquatic ecosystem.
The granules are coarse (1.5mm–3.3mm, 6 x 12 mesh), making them ideal for use in a variety of filtration setups including fluidized filters, reactors, and fine filter bags. Suitable for both freshwater and saltwater systems, this activated carbon is designed to absorb dissolved organic compounds (DOCs), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and unwanted coloration, significantly improving water quality.
Each kilogram of activated carbon equates to approximately 2.15 liters in volume, making it easy to calculate the quantity needed for your system.
Key Features:
- High adsorption capacity with a high rate of removal
- High hardness and therefore reduced production of fines
- High density therefore high mass adsorption capacity
- Low ash therefore minimal water soluble contaminants
- High Iodine Number of over 1200mg/g
- Steam Activated
- Made from coconut shell
- Perfect for use in small or large reactors and fluidized filters, as well as in fine filter bags
- Suitable for saltwater and freshwater systems
- Absorbs colour, DOC’s and VOC’s (dissolved organic compounds and volatile organic compounds)
This activated carbon is trusted by professionals across Australia and New Zealand for its reliability, consistency, and performance. Whether you’re managing a commercial aquaculture operation or maintaining a home aquarium, these Activated Carbon Granules provide a dependable solution for mechanical filtration.
