The 12\u00d740 mesh granule balances adsorption kinetics against pressure drop in fixed-bed contactors.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Typical Applications<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dechlorination and taste\/odour control in potable water, removal of dissolved organic carbon and colour, polishing of process and beverage water, and protection of downstream membranes and ion-exchange resin.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ<\/h2><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can the carbon be reactivated?<\/h3><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes \u2014 spent GAC can be thermally reactivated and returned to service, reducing lifecycle cost and disposal. SorbiTech can arrange reactivation and top-up programmes.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What contact time is recommended?<\/h3><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Empty-bed contact time of 8\u201315 minutes is typical for dechlorination and taste\/odour duties; longer for dissolved-organic removal.
