Activated Carbon
Activated carbon is a highly porous form of carbon with many applications, including water purification, air purification, and chemical processing.
Wood-based activated carbon is a common form produced by heating wood to high temperatures in the presence of an activating agent, such as steam or carbon dioxide.
- Activated Carbon is commonly used in water and air purification systems due to its highly porous structure and ability to adsorb contaminants such as pollutants, toxins, and impurities.
- This versatile material is also widely used in the food and beverage industry as a natural filtration and purification agent, removing unwanted color, odor, and taste from various products.
- One of the main benefits of Activated Carbon is its production through pyrolysis, a process in which organic materials such as coconut shells, wood, or coal are heated in the absence of oxygen to create a highly absorbent material with a large surface area.
- In addition to its use in purification systems, Activated Carbon is also used in medical treatments to remove toxic substances from the body, particularly in cases of drug overdoses or poisonings.
- Due to its ability to effectively trap and remove contaminants, Activated Carbon is a widely preferred choice for environmental remediation and is used to purify groundwater, remove harmful chemicals from soil, and treat air emissions from industrial processes.
