Product Description
Activated Carbon is a highly porous material designed to efficiently absorb impurities and contaminants. Derived from natural sources like coconut shells, wood, or coal, our Activated Carbon undergoes a rigorous activation process to enhance its adsorption capacity, making it an essential component in various purification and filtration applications.
Uses
Activated Carbon is widely used in:
- Water Purification: Removes chlorine, sediment, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), taste, and odor from water.
- Air Purification: Captures pollutants, odors, and volatile compounds in air filtration systems.
- Industrial Processes: Purifies gases and liquids in chemical processing, pharmaceutical production, and food & beverage industries.
- Gold Recovery: Utilized in the extraction of gold from ore.
- Medical Applications: Treats poisonings and overdoses by adsorbing toxins in the gastrointestinal tract.
