BG 1 granular activated carbon is a specialty activated carbon, developed for removing hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans from biogas streams. DARCO BG 1 granular activated carbon is produced by steam activation at high temperature using a proprietary process, which does not involve the use of any impregnant. As a result, the risk of bed fires due to exothermic reactions is greatly reduced. DARCO BG 1 granular activated carbon is produced as a 4x12 mesh granular carbon to provide a low-pressure drop in gas phase applications, making it suitable for use in the adsorption equipment at many of the existing biogas installations.
