Pelletized Activated Carbon

Pelletized Activated Carbon is a form of activated carbon that is processed into small, cylindrical pellets, typically used for various filtration and purification applications.

Here are the key details:

1. Composition:

Made from carbon-rich materials (e.g., wood, coal, coconut shells).
The material is activated by a process involving high temperatures and steam to increase its surface area, making it highly porous.
2. Applications:

Water Filtration: Removes contaminants, chemicals, and impurities from drinking water, wastewater, and industrial processes.

Air Purification: Used in air filters to eliminate odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and pollutants.

Gas Treatment: Removes harmful gases and toxins in industrial gas treatment systems.

Food and Beverage: Used in decolorizing and purifying liquids, such as sugar syrups or juices.

Medical: In some cases, used in medical applications, such as poisoning treatment (activated charcoal in emergency settings).

3. Advantages:

High Adsorption Capacity: The pellets have a large surface area, making them efficient at trapping contaminants.

Durability: Pelletized form allows for better handling and longer service life.

Low Dust: Pelletized carbon produces less dust compared to powdered activated carbon, making it easier to handle.

Pelletized activated carbon is a popular choice for large-scale filtration systems due to its effectiveness, ease of handling, and long-lasting performance.
