Description
This filtration media is activated bentonite clay with a neutral pH. It is cost effective and highly active for a fill life cycle. Carbon chemistry T-5 is used for winterization, oil purification, distillation, pesticide removal, and product improvement. The main uses of T-5 are color removal and heavy metal remediation. It is designed for fast filtering and lower clogging than normally expected. T-5® Bentonite Clay is commonly used in filter beds as the bottom layer and is helpful for stopping smaller particle media from reaching the filter element.
Our Activated Hardwood Carbon and T-5 Clay work well for scrubbing and then filtering out. Keep in mind: 10% Carbon to Clay ratio. 10% Clay to oil mixture ratio. Warm the oil (90°C), add adsorbents, mix 30 minutes, cool down (40°C), and then add a solvent and filter.
