MERSORB® LW MERCURY REMOVAL FROM: LIQUID WATER |
| PRODUCT INFORMATION MERSORB® LW mercury adsorbent is a pelleted, steam activated, coal-based activated carbon which has been sulfur impregnated to remove mercury from water. The base carbons, chosen for their high surface area and open pore structure, provide optimum mercury adsorption capacity and adsorption kinetics for removal of Hg & Hg ions from liquid water. This product is available in:
|
| APPLICATIONS MERSORB® LW mercury adsorbent is a commercially proven adsorbent for applications where Hg must be reduced to extremely low levels in water. Effluent water containing < 0.1ppBw Hg has been achieved from feed water containing several ppMw of Hg. See "Design & Performance Characteristics of MERSORB® Mercury Adsorbents in Liquids and Gases" for data useful in designing adsorption systems for specific applications. |
