SolCarb™

The range of SolCarb™ solvent recovery carbons has been developed to offer customers a range of products, that will allow them adsorb and recover different types of solvents. With the introduction of Legislation limiting the discharge of solvents to the atmosphere and the economic savings possible from recovering solvents, the range will help customers to conform to this new legislation and provide cost benefits. And because the SolCarb™ range of carbons are manufactured from both bituminous coal and coconut shell, customers can be confident of being able to select the appropriate carbon to adsorb and recover the type of solvents they use.
  SolCarb (tm) - activated carbon range  

All of the SolCarb™ solvent recovery range are proven as successful carbons for use in the wide range of dual or multi adsorber systems in operation by many of our customers. The SolCarb™ range are also used in all of our solvent recovery units. This is because the SolCarb™ range are cost effective, high quality and reliable carbons that offer maximum adsorption/desorption characteristics.

The inherent properties of our carbons provide customers with the performance they expect from one of the worlds leading carbon suppliers.

Quality

The SolCarb™ range of carbons are manufactured under strict quality guidelines. The carefully controlled activation stage develops the pore structure to provide the maximum adsorption/desorption. Each production batch will then be tested and approved by our

Quality Control Department under the International ISO 9002 quality procedures, ensuring consistency and reliability of the carbon.

Chemviron Carbon aims to supply all of its customers with the highest quality carbons that are suitable for use in all types of activated carbon air filters. Our team of technical sales people, combined with our extensive Technical and R&D Department can provide support and information, so that our customers receive a comprehensive back up.


We believe the quality of our customer service is as important as the quality of our carbons.
