ACTIVATED CARBON

Our coconut shell base activated carbon products effectively remove pollutants, contaminants and other impurities from water, air, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals and more.

We are a leader in the research, development, manufacturing and sale of high-grade activated carbon used in a growing range of environmental, health, safety and industrial applications. We offer a wide range of industry-leading coconut shell base activated carbon solutions, each with their own uses and applications, in two major product groups:

• Powdered activated carbon (PAC)
  
• Granular activated carbon (GAC)
  

Our activated carbon products are also used as colorants, carriers or catalysts in industrial processes, and the pore size distribution is highly important in most applications. Activated carbon, also called activated charcoal, is a form of carbon that has been processed to create millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms, resulting in a dramatically increased surface area. The surface area of activated carbon makes the material suitable for adsorption, a process by which impurities are removed from fluids, vapors or gas. 

Ideally, the carbon material used should have pore sizes that are larger in size than the material it is trying to adsorb.  The adsorption process helps carbon reduce hazardous gas, activate chemical reactions, and act as a carrier of biomass and chemicals.
