Wood Based Activated Carbon

Wood-based activated carbon is derived from carefully selected wood types and sawdust, produced through either steam or phosphoric acid activation processes. This carbon primarily contains meso and macro pores, making it highly effective for decolorizing liquids and water. It is commonly used in surface water and wastewater filters to remove organic impurities and larger molecular structures such as MIB (2-Methylisoborneol) and Geosmin. Phosphoric acid activation of wood-based carbon can achieve a very high surface area, ranging from 1500-2500 m²/g. It is available in granular, pelletized, or powdered forms.

Applications:

• Potable water purification
• Surface and wastewater treatment
• Decolorization in the food and beverage industry
• Pharmaceutical purification processes
• Purification and decolourization of edible oils
