Treatment of Benzene. Benzene can be removed with activated carbon. Approximately 1000 gallons of water containing 570 ppb of benzene can be treated with 0.35 lbs of activated carbon, in other words; 94,300 gallons of water can be treated for every cubic foot of carbon.

Benzene

Source of Benzene

Benzene, a byproduct of petroleum refining, is used as an intermediate in the production of synthesized plastics, and is also an additive in gasoline. Gasoline contains approximately 0.8 percent benzene by volume. Benzene is classified as a volatile organic chemical (VOC) and is considered a carcinogen by the US EPA. Benzene makes its way into water supplies from leaking fuel tanks, industrial chemical waste, pharmaceutical industry waste, or from run off of pesticides. The current US EPA Ml for Benzene is 0.005 mg/l

Treatment of Benzene

Benzene can be removed with activated carbon. Approximately 1000 gallons of water containing 570 ppb of benzene can be treated with 0.35 lbs of activated carbon, in other words; 94,300 gallons of water can be treated for every cubic foot of carbon. The benzene must be in contact with the carbon for a minimum of 10 minutes. The activated carbon must be replaced when exhausted.

How We Treat It:

We have combined two 2.5 cubic foot carbon filters for a total of 5 cubic feet to achieve the flow rate needed to remove Benzene effectively for your average size home up to 3 bathrooms up to 5 gallons per minute. By combining two tanks it keeps the cost of the system for you much lower than going with a commercial sized system.

The Carbon filter system does not require electricity or back washing and is solely for Municipal supply AKA City water applications because of that. If you are on a private well please look at our back washing Carbon Filters
