Description
8/24 Brimac Bone Char Water Grade
Part Number: 20824
8/24 Brimac Bone Char Water Grade is a high-quality granulated bone char of bovine origin designed for water treatment and purification applications. The material consists of a combination of carbon and hydroxyapatite (calcium phosphate, Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂), providing a porous media suitable for adsorption and filtration processes.
This bone char is recommended for use in potable water, drinking water, and wastewater treatment applications. It can help reduce or remove a range of unwanted contaminants and compounds, including heavy metals, color, THM precursor compounds, chlorine, fluorine, and fluoride, while also helping to eliminate unpleasant tastes and odors.
8/24 Brimac Bone Char Water Grade is manufactured to consistent particle-size specifications and is supported by NSF/ANSI 61, Kosher, Halal, and HACCP certifications, as well as FDA registration, making it suitable for applications where material quality and compliance are important considerations.
