Reduce hydrocarbon contamination up to 95% in a single pass

| By Chemical Engineering

The Carbflex OAC-20BB Oil Absorbing Filter Cartridge (photo) is an efficient, high-capacity solution for reducing hydrocarbon contamination and other pollutants. The OAC-20BB filter cartridge is constructed from modified cellulose-based filter media for exceptional absorption, delivering high flowrates and low pressure drop. This design allows the filter media to chemically bond with hydrocarbons instantaneously — absorbing up to 95% of the total hydrocarbons in a single pass. The OAC-20BB filter cartridge can also be used in conjunction with additional Carbflex Series cartridges connected in series to provide lower hydrocarbon outlet levels. The high-capacity filter media ensures the cartridge can reliably contain 250 – 300% of its own weight in removed hydrocarbons, reducing time and costs associated with filter change-outs. — Pentair Industrial, Sheboygan, Mich.
