Activated Charcoal Carbon is a highly porous form of carbon with a large internal surface area, processed to adsorb gases, vapors, and dissolved substances. It is widely used in industrial applications where high-efficiency filtration or purification is required.

Chemical and Physical Properties

• Density: ~0.3–0.6 g/cm³ (bulk, varies by grade)

• Surface Area: 500–1500 m²/g

• pH (aqueous suspension): Neutral to slightly basic

• Solubility: Insoluble in water and organic solvents

• Odor: Odorless

Applications

• Air Treatment: Removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), odors, and contaminants in industrial air purification systems.

• Water Treatment: Used in municipal and industrial filtration units to remove chlorine, organic contaminants, and trace metals.

• Chemical Processing: Employed as a carrier, catalyst support, or purification medium in chemical manufacturing.

• Environmental Protection: Utilized in spill cleanup kits, vapor traps, and emissions control systems.
