SAAFCarb MA

ENGINEERED CHEMICAL MEDIA

Product Overview
  • Provides targeted contaminant removal capacity for acid gases
  • Provides extended equipment protection with infrequent media changeovers
  • Compatible for use in all carbon-based air filtration systems
  • Low pressure drop and high adsorptive capacity

SAAFCarb MA engineered gas removal chemical media is designed to efficiently remove specific gaseous contaminants from airstreams.

SAAFCarb MA engineered gas removal chemical media is designed to efficiently remove specific gaseous contaminants from airstreams.

Target contaminants include:

  • Hydrogen sulfide
  • Sulfur oxide
  • Nitrogen dioxide
  • Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)

SAAFCarb MA media is manufactured exclusively for acidic corrosive environments. This media consists of cylindrical, porous pellets. The pellets
are composed of pelletized activated carbon that is suitably impregnated for the removal of acid gases.

The SAAFCarb MA media chemisorptive process removes impure gases by adsorption, absorption, and chemical reaction. In this process, the gas is trapped within the pellet, where a chemical reaction changes the gases into harmless solids and thereby mitigates the possibility of desorption.

SAAFCarb MA media undergoes the following quality control tests:

  • Apparent Density
  • Ball-pan Hardness
  • H2S Gas Capacity
  • Moisture Content
  • Pellet Diameter

SAAFCarb MA media is packaged in one cubic foot containers and 1,100 lb. (499 kg) super sacks.
SAAFCarb MA media is also available packaged in SAAF cartridges, cassettes, and trays.

SAAFCarb MA media performs under the following
application guidelines (actual capacities and efficiencies
may vary):

  • Temperature: -4° to 125°F (-20° to 51°C)
  • Humidity: 10% – 95% RH
  • Suitable for use in commercial and industrial systems with equipment face velocities from 50 to 500 FPM (0.25 – 2.5 m/s).

Installation
The installers must use dust masks, safety goggles, and rubber gloves.

Disposal
The spent SAAFCarb MA media must be disposed of according to local, state, and federal guidelines.

Wet activated carbon adsorbs atmospheric oxygen, causing low oxygen supply in enclosed areas or packed containers. This can be potentially hazardous for workers who enter these oxygen-depleted areas. Make sure that workers adhere to the provincial and state safety guidelines.
