Midas® OCM odour control media is produced by way of a special manufacturing process that combines selected active ingredients and premium quality bituminous coal, which gives Midas® media a very high H2S breakthrough capacity. It is suitable for use in any application where impregnated or other odour control carbons are currently used such as sewage treatment plants, refineries and pulp and paper mills, for acidic gas (HCI and SO2) and VOC adsorption.

The media is not impregnated so will not suffer any of the drawbacks that can be associated with alkali-impregnated carbons. It is also safer to load, start-up and remove from an adsorber system. MIDA® media has an ignition temperature similar to virgin coal-based carbons (>450oC).

Midas® OCM is a high surface area macroporous media with a large pore volume. The lack of an impregnant means that all of the pore volume and surface areas is available for storing the sulfur produced during the catalytic oxidation of H2S, and for the adsorption of any VOCs that may be present in the gas stream.
