WHAT IS Activated carbon?

Activated carbon is a highly effective carbon absorbent that is treated physically or chemically to generate micropores that vastly increase its adsorptive surface area. This unique property makes activated carbon an ideal material for purifying, dechlorinating, deodorizing, and decolorizing both liquid and vapor applications. With its high surface area, pore structure (micro, meso, and macro), and high degree of surface reactivity, activated carbon is widely used in many industries, including water purification, food grade products, cosmetology, automotive applications, industrial gas purification, petroleum, and precious metal recovery, mainly for gold. The base materials for activated carbons are typically coconut shell, coal, or wood, making them an economical and sustainable choice for a wide range of applications.

TYPES OF ACTIVATED CARBON

Choosing the right activated carbon product and mesh size is crucial for achieving optimal results in your specific application. Each grade and size of activated carbon is designed to target specific contaminants and impurities. Therefore, it is essential to consider the application and the type of contaminants you plan to remove when selecting the appropriate activated carbon product and mesh size. Our team of experts can provide technical support and guidance to help you choose the most suitable activated carbon product for your specific needs.

TYPICAL APPLICATTIONS INCLUDE:

★  Water treatment to remove impurities such as chlorine,organic compounds and heavy metals.

★  Removal of volatile organic compounds such as Benzene, TCE, and PCE.

★  Hydrogen Sulfide (HS) and removal of waste gases

★  Impregnated activated carbon used as a bacteria inhibitor in drinking water filters

★  Recovery of gold

★  Removal of chlorine and chloramine

★  Food & Beverage 

Designing an effective activated carbon filtration system requires careful consideration of several factors, including contact time, pressure drop, and vessel size. Additionally, the physical and chemical characteristics of the activated carbon used in the system are critical to achieving optimal contaminant removal. Material testing is essential to identify the most suitable activated carbon product for your specific application. ASTM test methods, such as surface area, density, and water content (moisture), can be used to evaluate the physical and chemical properties of activated carbon and determine its suitability for a particular application. Our team of experts can provide technical support and guidance to help you design and implement an effective activated carbon filtration system that meets your specific needs.
