Product Overview

DIOSORB-S is a specialty powdered activated carbon engineered for the capture of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including dioxins, furans, and PCBs, from flue gas and thermal process exhaust. Manufactured through a proprietary activation and surface modification process, this grade features an enhanced mesopore structure that captures planar aromatic compounds more effectively than standard micropore-dominated carbons.

With an iodine adsorption value exceeding 800 mg/g, a specific surface area above 800 m²/g, and a dioxin index above 2.5, DIOSORB-S meets stringent emission control requirements for waste incineration, industrial combustion, and hazardous waste treatment facilities.

Key Application Areas

  • Flue Gas Dioxin Control — Injected into waste incinerator and cement kiln exhaust streams to adsorb dioxins and furans before stack release, ensuring compliance with EU Waste Incineration Directive and EPA MACT standards.
  • Persistent Organic Pollutant Removal — Captures PCBs and other POPs from thermal process vents and remediation sites, supporting Stockholm Convention compliance.
  • Mercury Co-Removal — Functions alongside mercury control systems in coal-fired power plants and waste incinerators, adsorbing mercury-laden particulates and vapor-phase species.
  • Hazardous Waste Incineration — Treats exhaust from medical, chemical, and industrial waste burners where dioxin formation is a regulatory concern.
  • Soil Remediation Vapor Control — Adsorbs volatilized dioxins and organics from thermal desorption and soil vapor extraction systems.

Key Advantages

  • Enhanced Mesopore Architecture: Tuned pore structure specifically targets planar aromatic molecules like dioxins and PCBs that standard carbons struggle to capture efficiently.
  • High Dioxin Index: Index >2.5 indicates proven performance under standardized test conditions for dioxin-family compound adsorption.
  • High-Temperature Stability: Engineered to maintain structural integrity and adsorption capacity in hot flue gas streams before cooling and baghouse capture.
  • Regulatory Compliance Support: Consistent performance helps facilities meet EU 2000/76/EC, EPA MACT, and other international POP emission standards.

  • Q
    Q: How is DIOSORB-S applied in flue gas treatment?
    A

    It is typically dry-injected into the flue gas duct upstream of particulate collection (baghouse or ESP), where it adsorbs dioxins and is then captured in the fly ash or filter dust.

  • Q
    Can DIOSORB-S remove mercury as well as dioxins?
    A

    Yes, it provides co-removal of mercury-laden particulates. For dedicated elemental mercury capture, MF-ZS sulfur-impregnated carbon offers higher specific efficiency.

  • Q
    What is the typical injection rate?
    A

    Injection rates vary with flue gas flow, temperature, and target emission limits. We provide technical support to optimize dosing based on stack testing and regulatory requirements.

  • Q
    Is spent DIOSORB-S considered hazardous waste?
    A

    Spent carbon containing captured dioxins and POPs may be classified as hazardous depending on local regulations. Disposal should follow national guidelines for contaminated adsorbents.
