Description

Elevate your water purification with Carbon, a premium Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) manufactured right here in South Africa. Sustainably sourced from local macadamia nut shells, this high-density media undergoes an advanced steam activation process to create a superior bimodal pore structure. Whether you are treating municipal water or complex borehole sources, Roto Carb MRS1 offers an eco-friendly, high-performance alternative to traditional coal or coconut-based carbons.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Eco-Friendly & Sustainable: Locally manufactured from renewable macadamia shells, reducing the carbon footprint of your water treatment.

  • Superior Bimodal Filtration: A unique mix of meso- and micro-pores allows the carbon to adsorb a vast range of molecular sizes for more comprehensive cleaning.

  • High Chemical Resistance: Effectively eliminates Chlorine, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), and organic contaminants that compromise water safety.

  • Exceptional Durability: High mechanical strength and hardness lead to lower energy backwashing and rapid bed fluidization.

  • Certified Quality: Fully compliant with SANS 52915 (EN12915) standards for use in potable drinking water treatment.

  • Low Ash Content: Ensures a cleaner filtration process and a high-developed internal surface area for maximum adsorption.

Versatile Water Treatment Applications

Carbon is engineered for versatility across residential, agricultural, and industrial sectors:

  • General Potable Water: Improves the taste and smell of municipal drinking water.

  • Borehole Water Purification: Reduces organic impurities common in groundwater.

  • Specialized Systems: Ideal for aquaculture, water re-use, and agricultural irrigation.
