TYPES OF
ACTIVATED
CARBON
GRANULATED ACTIVATED CARBON Granulated activated carbon has a smaller external surface than powdered activated carbon. This type is mostly utilized in general deodorization, air and water treatment.
PELLETIZED ACTIVATED CARBON The pellets are typically employed in gas phase applications because they have a low dust content, good mechanical strength, and a low-pressure drop.
POWDERED ACTIVATED CARBON This is a fine form of activated carbon, and it is typically added directly to process units like raw water intakes, gravity filters, and clarifiers.
IMPREGNATED ACTIVATED CARBON This form of activated carbon is infused with inorganic impregnates like silver and iodine. Its biggest application is in the purification of domestic potable water.
CATALYTIC ACTIVATED CARBON Catalytic activated carbon enhances chemical processes, which makes it useful for removing contaminants from drinking water.
