Activated Carbon
Activated Carbon
Activated carbon is a special carbon with a surface area of 1,000 to 2,000 m2 per 1 g.
This means that half a teaspoon of activated carbon has an area of approximately four tennis courts. Activated carbon takes on different shapes, such as powder, granulated, and fibrous forms, etc. Activated carbon uses its large surface area to absorb dirt in air and water. Activated carbon serves as an important role in protecting the natural environment and improving our living environment.
Main application
Used widely for decoloration and deodorization, such as decoloration and purification in food and pharmaceutical fields, and water treatment for water purification plants.
Powder
Activated carbon, made mainly from sawdust, coconut shells, and coal as raw materials, is ground and adjusted to fine sizes for use. Being a fine activated carbon, it has excellent connective properties.
Granulated
Activated carbon, made mainly from coconut shells and coal as raw materials, is ground and adjusted to appropriate sizes for use. Compared with powdered activated carbon, granulated activated carbon is adjusted to larger sizes. It is a material with a wide range of uses that can be used in liquid-phase and vapor-phase fields.
