ColorSorb® G7 Features and Benefits

• Combined decolor and trace

Speciality activated carbon for decolorising duties
organic removal
• Acid pH range
ColorSorb® G7 is effective in the treatment of lightly discolored industrial
• Sustainable raw material
liquids and foodstuffs. This grade has a highly mesoporous structure for • Rapid adsorption kinetics
efficient adsorption of light colour bodies and trace organic compounds. • Range of particle sizes
The product is treated following activation and exhibits a neutral pH value; • Mesoporous product
critical where inversion of the treated liquor can be an issue. ColorSorb® • Homogenous product
G7 is manufactured with strict control of particle size to optimize adsorption
kinetics and maintain high filterability. Available Particle Sizes
