Coal Based Activated Carbon
But Why?
Advantages of Coal Based Activated Carbon
Exceptional Adsorption Performance
Activated carbon's high surface area and porosity enable effective removal of organic compounds, heavy metals, and pollutants. Its superior gas and vapor adsorption makes it ideal for air filtration, gas purification, and solvent recovery. Additionally, it ensures efficient water treatment by eliminating chlorine, pesticides, and micro-pollutants from drinking and industrial water.
Durable & Cost-Effective
Activated carbon's hardness and low dust formation ensure durability and minimal material loss. Its high regenerability and reusability make it a cost-efficient choice for large-scale applications. Additionally, its economical nature provides a budget-friendly solution for industrial use.
Wide Range of Available Forms
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is used for water treatment and gas purification, while Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) enables quick adsorption in liquid applications. Pelletized Activated Carbon is ideal for air purification, gas treatment, and industrial filtration.
Versatility Across Industries
Activated carbon is widely used in water and wastewater treatment to remove impurities and toxins. It plays a key role in air and gas purification, controlling emissions in industries. In the food and beverage sector, it aids in sugar decolorization, beverage purification, and oil refining. Additionally, it supports pharmaceutical and chemical processing by purifying active ingredients and recovering solvents.
The Future of Coal-Based Activated Carbon
The rising demand for activated carbon is driven by its expanding use in power plants, chemical industries, and wastewater treatment. Innovations in regeneration and sustainable processing are enhancing cost-efficiency and product longevity. Additionally, the industry is shifting towards low-emission activation processes, supporting green manufacturing and sustainability goals.
Coal Based Activated Carbon
GRANULAR FORM
Granular coal-based activated carbon is a versatile material that is widely used in various industries due to its exceptional adsorption properties. It is produced from bituminous coal, a type of coal that is high in carbon content. The coal is first carbonized, which involves heating it in the absence of oxygen to remove volatile matter. The resulting char is then activated, which involves heating it in the presence of a gas, such as steam or carbon dioxide, to increase its surface area and porosity.
