CARBON MEDIA -- REACTIVATED AND VIRGIN REACTIVATED CARBON Reactivated Granular Activated Carbon This media is a reactivated granular activated carbon.  This product is designed for liquid phase applications where a virgin granular activated carbon is not required.  This carbon provides good adsorptive performance at a lower cost to virgin products. Properties and Specifications PROPERTIES VALUE TESTING METHOD Iodine Number 800 mg/g AWWA B604 Molasses No. 250 AWWA B604 Moisture as Packed (max.) 4% ASTM D2867 Apparent Density 0.50 g/cc ASTM D2854 Mesh Size 8x40 U.S. Sieve CAUTION; avoid inhalation of excessive carbon dust.  No problems are known to be associated in handling this material, however dust may contain greater than 1.0% silica (quartz).  Long term inhalation of high dust concentration can lead to respiratory impairment.  Use forced ventilation or a dust mask when necessary for protection against airborne dust exposure.  Wet activated carbon preferentially adsorbs oxygen from air.  Use appropriate work and safety practices for low oxygen environments when entering vessels and confined areas.
