KEY FEATURES

•

USE OF CALGON CENTAUR™ CATALYTIC CARBON

•

REMOVAL OF CHLORAMINES AND HYDROGEN SULFIDE

•

REDUCES RELIANCE ON ADDITIONAL CHEMICAL TREATMENT

CATALYTIC CARBON/CALGON CENTAUR™

Aries FilterWorks Catalytic Carbon cartridge contains Calgon Centaur™
Carbon. This is a specially enhanced carbon developed through an advanced
process starting as Granular Activated Carbon (GAC). By altering the electron
structure of GAC, it enhances its catalytic capability, enabling it to cause
chemical reactions without changing its structure. As a result, it promotes a
wide range of chemical reactions where conventional carbons are not effective.

APPLICATIONS

RESIDENTIAL DRINKING WATER CHLORAMINES REMOVAL -

Chloramines are the result of standard chlorinating procedures, or are inten­tionally introduced by municipal water treatment plants. Replacing traditional
activated carbon with catalytic carbon results in significantly improved water
treatment.

PRIVATE WELLS -

Effective for treatment of “sulfur water”; catalytic carbon retains all of the
adsorptive properties of conventional activated carbon, but it combines them
with the ability to promote or catalyze chemical reactions during the treatment
process, catalytic carbon first adsorbs sulfides onto the carbon surface. Then,
in the presence of dissolved oxygen, it oxidizes the sulfides and converts them
to non-objectionable compounds.

COMMERCIAL -

Catalytic Carbon cartridges are well suited for treating process water, in the
bottling and soft drink industries, as well as aquarium treatment.

CATALYTIC CARBON

ABOUT CATALYTIC CARBON

Catalytic Carbon provides another alternative to chemical treatment. Essentially, catalytic carbon is activated carbon with a modified carbon surface.
Activated carbon filtration removes very small amounts of hydrogen sulfide, and has a limited capacity to adsorb hydrogen sulfide. Catalytic carbon
is more efficient due to its unique structure at removing hydrogen sulfide.

Chloramines are used to control bacterial growth in distribution systems and to reduce the formation of trihalomethanes (THMs). However, recent
concerns over chloramines in the water supply and its by-products have water professionals looking for products to remove chloramines. This can be
achieved by the use of Catalytic Carbon.
