Activated carbon is a very effective adsorbent for removal of impurities from water because it is inherently very stable in water.
Air Filteration
Activated carbon is the safest, most efficient and cost-effective technology for the removal of airborne chemicals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), gaseous pollutants, and other fumes and odors in industrial, municipal or commercial applications.
Gas Purification & Storage
Activated carbon is one of the best treatment options for purification and separation of gases. Be it purification of natural gas, compressed gas, reformer gas and specialty gas, or separation of gaseous mixtures, granular activated carbon and activated carbon pellets are can be used in versatile ways to suit different configurations of adsorption systems such as packed bed or fluidized bed columns, pressure/temperature/vacuum swing adsorption, etc.
Chemicals
Activated carbon is used for the removal of impurities, by-products or off-specification constituents including colours, odours, etc.
Food & Beverages
Activated carbon plays a multi-dimensional role in removal of these undesirable impurities as well as improving of taste, colour and odour.
Pharma & Medical
Activated carbon is one such tool used by the pharma industry to ensure purity of products such as APIs, antibiotics, painkillers, steroids, enzymes, contrast media, vitamins, amino acids, glycerin, lactose, etc.
Personal Protection Equipment
Due to their strong adsorption characteristics for a range of toxic and harmful gases, activated carbons have been used for personal protection for decades. Typically, they are loaded in respirator masks in the form of canisters to filter the outside air by capturing the harmful contaminants from air.
Energy Storage
Activated carbon are used in developing future battery technologies featuring carbon.
