Activated charcoal

What is activated carbon? Deep black carbon made from walnut shells, anthracite, coconut shells, etc., is treated with steam to create a surface area of ​​1,000 m² per gram – the size of a football field! It’s easy to see how many molecules can fit on that surface. In technical applications, these include H₂S, CO₂, mercury, VOCs, toxic aromatics, odors, and more. Selecting the right material requires knowledge and experience. C&CS can help users choose the right product, calculate the reactor requirements, and, most importantly, supply the material.
