PolyGuard is a polymeric filtration media to remove dissolved hydrocarbon contamination.
PolyGuard features the following:
High-capacity polymeric super -absorbent for the removal of hydrocarbon contaminants
Suited for both aqueous and vapor phase applications
Dry, granular absorbent, in ready to use form
Highly effective with high influent concentrations (ppmv)
Used as a pre-treatment for carbon or other polishing technologies to extend bed life
Recommended as a stand-alone product in some situations, where other technologies fail
Cost effective in operation, for a quick ROI
Easily and quickly disposed of through incineration
Labor saving | |
PolyGuard's high absorption capacity makes it the perfect replacement or add-on to a carbon filtration system.
Systems suitable for carbon adsorption can be easily adapted to using PolyGuard alone or in conjunction with carbon.
