Product Overview
B-90 is a high-activity coal-based powdered activated carbon delivering an iodine adsorption value exceeding 900 mg/g for enhanced municipal and industrial water treatment. Manufactured from premium bituminous coal through steam activation, it provides superior organic removal compared to standard 800 mg/g grades.
The elevated adsorption capacity makes B-90 ideal for municipalities facing higher organic loading, industrial facilities requiring tighter effluent control, and chemical processors needing reliable impurity removal. The 8–11 pH and controlled ash content ensure compatibility with conventional treatment chemistries.

Key Application Areas
- Municipal Drinking Water — Handles higher organic loading events and provides greater safety margin for taste and odor control in surface water plants.
- Urban & Industrial Wastewater — Treats combined municipal-industrial streams and shock loads that overwhelm lower-capacity grades.
- Chemical Purification — Purifies process intermediates and final products where trace organics affect quality or catalyst performance.
- Bio-Activated Carbon Systems — Supports advanced biological-carbon hybrid processes with higher adsorption capacity for non-biodegradable fractions.
- Seasonal Algae & Organic Events — Provides rapid response to cyanobacteria blooms and natural organic matter spikes in reservoir-fed systems.
Key Advantages
- Enhanced Adsorption Margin: >900 mg/g iodine delivers 10–15% higher capacity than standard 800 mg/g grades, extending treatment effectiveness during peak loading.
- Municipal Proven Performance: Trusted by drinking water plants for consistent taste, odor, and organic contaminant removal across variable source water conditions.
- Rapid Response Kinetics: Powdered form achieves near-instantaneous dispersion and adsorption, critical for emergency dosing and variable-flow systems.
- Compatible with Conventional Treatment: pH 8–11 and controlled particle size work with standard coagulation, sedimentation, and filtration trains without process modification.
