Carbon solutions brought by Procarbon
Activated Carbons
Customized activated carbon. Maximum performance.
Activated carbon is never one-size-fits-all. That’s why Procarbon offers tailored solutions for critical applications such as water treatment, flue gas cleaning, air purification, and industrial processes — ensuring maximum performance and efficiency.
What is Activated Carbon?
Activated carbon is made from materials such as coal, wood and coconut shells. The materials are converted into specific products with varied properties. Each product has a variation of specialised applications. The activated carbon’s physical and chemical characteristics play an important role in removing contaminants effectively. Pore size, density and mesh size all affect the products adsorption power and application area. Coconut based activated carbon with its large internal surface area characterised by micro porosity and low dust makes it suitable for water purification and critical air applications. Wood based activated carbon with a large internal surface area characterised by both micro- and mesoporousity has excellent decolorizing characteristics.
Typical application areas
Removal of volatile organic compounds such as Benzene, TCE, and PCE.
Hydrogen Sulfide and removal of waste gases.
Purifying and removal of contaminants from industrial wastewater.
Impregnated products used as a bacteria inhibitor in drinking water filters.
Removal of taste and odor causing compounds such as MIB and geosmine.
Recovery of precious metals.
Vapor phase removal, VOC, of industrial contaminants.
