Gas Filter

SORBEX Gas Phase Filtration, also known as Molecular or Chemical Filtration, plays a critical role in managing air quality. This filtration technology is essential in both industrial and commercial settings to control pollutants at the source and supply fresh outdoor air respectively.

Particulate Filtration: For particulates, we employ a range of filters including coarse, fine, and absolute. However, for gas pollutants, solutions vary based on pollutant types and dimensions. These include:

Absorption: Utilizing Gas Scrubbers that employ water and/or chemicals to capture pollutants within the liquid phase.

Adsorption: This involves surface bonding of pollutants either physically or chemically. It includes:

Physical Adsorption: Typically involves Activated Carbon Filters.

Chemical Adsorption: Utilizes specialized Chemical Filters for targeted contaminant control.

Standards and Regulations:

According to EN ISO 16890 and DIN EN 16798-3, Gas Phase Filters are recommended for improving Outdoor Air Quality (ODA) to meet Fresh Air standards. ASHRAE 62.1 offers similar guidelines for maintaining Indoor Air Quality (IAQ). For industrial applications, ANSI/ISA-71.04 standards are crucial to protect electronic equipment and valuable materials from corrosion.

SORBEX VirginCarb is activated carbon media with CTC-50 ECO 4mm Pellets.

SORBEX ChemCarb-KOH-ULTRA-4P Chemical Impregnated Alumina, Zeolite, Activated Carbon which is an activated carbon-based adsorbent in the shape of 4 mm diameter pellets.

The goal of chemical filter media is to capture harmful gases such as H2S, SO2, SO3, O3 and mercaptans in the air.
