Odor and Fume Adsorption

-- Activated Carbon Air Filtration Media

 

Activated carbon, is widely recognized as an effective method of removing and preventing odor/fume buildup in recirculated air.  Utilizing the finest quality carbon coatings, Permatron offers bulk media and pads cut to size.

Synthetic media substrates (non-woven polyester) are impregnated with finely ground coatings, and heat set to retain those coatings even when the media is rinsed or vacuumed.  Just as a sponge soaks up water, activated carbon media adsorbs odors and fumes.  Noxious odors are pulled and held by molecular action into millions of tiny pores in the media coating.  The odor causing molecules are actually removed from the air permanently, not masked by another odor.

Air velocity, humidity, odor level and temperature influence the odor elimination process and the life expectancy of the activated carbon.  At times of high odor generation, air should recirculate through the media to achieve maximum effectiveness. The rate of adsorption depends on the relationship between the pore structure, or surface area, and the shape of the contaminating molecules.  Our activated carbon is ground to an extremely fine particle size to increase the surface area available for adsorption.

Media is available in rolls or cut to size pieces.
