Activated Carbon

Our Activated carbon is used to an increasing extent in the treatment of water, including drinking water, ground water, service water, and waste water. Its primary role in this context is to adsorb dissolved organic impurities and to eliminate substances affecting odor, taste and color in halogenized hydrocarbons and other organic pollutants. Yet another broad field of application for activated carbon is the treatment, purification and decolourisation of liquids, which is of particular importance in the pharmaceuticals, food, beverage and other allied industries.
