Carbon air scrubber technology was, in its time, a major improvement over simple ventilation. The carbon inside the system would absorb the contaminants from the air as it moved through the filtration system and trap them inside the filter. However, it is no longer the most effective way to clean gaseous pollutants from the enivronment. Purafil air scrubbers bring many modern advantages to air filtration.

Once a carbon air scrubber system filter has reached the end of its life, it has become a hazard because all of the pollutants it has removed from the environment are still contained in the filter. Purafil media is designed to use a chemisorption process instead that converts the gases it is designed to react with into a harmless compound. In this manner Purafil air scrubbers completely eliminate pollutants while remaining safe to handle. Another huge advantage of the Purafil media is its ability to be customized to a location. After determining the contaminants in a location, various types of the media granules can be mixed to create a filtering system customized for the specific hazards in the air.

The versatile Purafil media is ideal for applications such as an emergency sulfur dioxide or chlorine air scrubber. There are Purafil systems that can safely and efficiently remove the entire contents of a ruptured cylinder from the air. The Purafil media is also particularly well suited for the creation of filtering systems to limit corrosion in wet environments such as water treatment facilities.

From a chlorine scrubber for emergency situations to lighter duty filtration systems for office buildings or school buildings, Purafil is the solution to your clean air needs. Made to order filtration units are available to create the most efficient air cleaning scheme possible for each building.
