ABD00212305 HIGH FLOW VENTSORB ACTIVATED CARBON PRODUCT BULLETIN description Calgon Carbon's High Flow VentSorb odor control unit is a unique concept developed by Calgon Carbon Corporation to protect against noxious, unhealthy, and unpleasant odors emanating from small volume emis sions from a variety of sources within sewage treatment plants. The odors emitted from localized areas usually contain a complex mix ture of hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans, and organic compounds which are generally harmless in nature, but can be olfactive at levels as low as onehalf part per billion. As a result, even small emissions can create un necessary problems both within the plant and within the surrounding community. The High Flow VentSorb is a reusable, modular, prefabricated canister containing 225 pounds of IVP* Granular Activated Carbon that has more than twice the capacity for H2S as an equal quantity of a stan dard vapor phase carbon. It includes all of the essential items found in a large-scale adsorption system-vessel, activated carbon, inlet connection, and an outlet connection for the purified air stream. The High Flow VentSorb was designed by Calgon Carbon Corporation for purification of air streams having flows up to 425 cfm and with relatively low organic concentrations. features and benefits Easy To Install-Place the High Flow VentSorb modular canister on a level surface, indoors or outdoors, near the source of the emission to be controlled. Connect a 6-inch flexible hose or pipe from the system to the inlet nozzle at the base of the High Flow VentSorb. Then con nect the 6-inch outlet nozzle centered in the removable canister lid to the system outlet vent. A U-shaped vent line that will serve as a rain guard is recommended. Reusable Modular Prefabricated Canisters-When the carbon in the High Flow VentSorb is saturated and can no longer remove additional pollutants, it can be easily replaced. Unhook the unit from service, remove the twist off cover, and dispose of the saturated carbon--in ac cordance with environmental regulations. Then install a new charge of virgin IVP carbon and return the unit to service. Replacement Carbon-Two hundred twenty-five pound drums of IVP carbon are available from Calgon Carbon. To ensure replacement car bon is readily available when breakthrough occurs, one or more spare drums should be available for each installation. Non-Corrosive-All High Flow VentSorb components are fabricated from polypropylene resins that have a proven reliability for this type of service. Effective In Treating Simple Or Complex Mixtures Of ContaminantsThe IVP granular activated carbon provides simultaneous protection against a wide variety of emissions including hydrogen sulfide, mer captan, and many other organic chemicals. Continuous Treatment--The High Flow VentSorb works 24 hours per day to remove contaminants from air emissions regardless of fluctua tions in the flow of the air stream. Low Cost System-The High Flow VentSorb contains no moving V___________ _______________parts. Its simplicity helps to keep costs to a minimum. Calgon Carbon Corporation 1966 *U.$. Patent No. 4,072,479 \ y Bulletin 27<112a ABD00212306 Virtually No Operator Attention Required--An occasional check of the treated air quality is all that is required. Flexibility To Meet A Variety Of Needs--A High Flow VentSorb unit requires relatively little space. Where necessary, more than one unit can be installed easily at different locations on a plant site. Additional units can be installed in series or in parallel configurations. pressure drop characteristics Pressure drop through a High Flow VentSorb is a function of the odor laden air flow as shown in the graph. A High Flow VentSorb can handle up to 400 cfm at a pressure drop of less than 7 inches of water column. If higher flows or lower pressure drops are needed, multiple canisters may be installed in parallel operation. The High Flow VentSorb modular canister is rated for atmospheric pressure. life cycle characteristics Figure 2 is a graph projecting the theoretical life of a High Flow Vent Sorb with IVP at various H2S levels and a flow rate of 300 scfm. Actual life will depend on the type and concentration of contaminants as well as temperature, humidity, and airflow. Contact your Calgon Carbon representative for additional infromation.

Gross Weight precautions Calgon Carbon's type IVP activated carbon can liberate heat by reacting chemically with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. This potential is enhanc ed by an impregnated material which causes a catalytic reaction. Because heat is evolved, the carbon must not be confined without operative fans which are necessary to provide air flows required for heat dissipation. In operative fans permit formation of convective air drafts within the vessel that support this slow chemical reaction but which are insufficient for heat removal. In cases where there is insufficient air supply or where disrupted air service occurs, the chemical reaction can be prevented by sealing the vessel and thereby restricting contact between air and the car bon. Please call your local Calgon Carbon Representative for any clarification of the above.
