Active Coal

[eltjo]

Hi all,

I have a question, does anyone know if the following components can be filtered with an active coal filter?

NOx
Ethylene
Methane

If not, is there a way to filter these components? (Catalytic Oxidation for instance?)

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Activated carbon will remove small quantities of the methane and ethylene. I do not think it will get NOx. A catalytic converter will Convert NOx and it will combust the methane. The ethylene will cause the catalyst to coke up, ie form solid carbon on the bed, at low temperatures.
