Activated Carbon is the carbon produced by activation of any carbonaceous material such as coconut shells, bamboo, wood chips, sawdust, coal, lignite, paddy husk, etc.  and is a highly porous, high-surface-area adsorptive material with a largely amorphous structure.

The base raw material has a significant impact on the final product properties, including pore size distribution and volume, hardness and purity. Most commercial activated carbons are manufactured from the following raw materials:

◘  Coconut shell
◘  Wood
◘  Coal (anthracite, bituminous, sub-bituminous, lignite)

A Glance – Forms & Application

Activated carbon sorbents are tailored for specific applications mainly based on pore size and pore volume requirements. Porosity and other parameters are controlled by the following:
1) Raw material selection;

2) Activation process conditions

3) post-processing steps.

Depending on the application, activated carbon may be in the form of powder (PAC), granule (GAC) or Exturdate (EAC). All three forms are available in a range of particle sizes.
