About Activated Carbon
Activated carbon is a highly porous form of carbon processed to increase surface area, extensively used for adsorption applications across water purification, air filtration, food processing, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Internationally traded grades include powdered activated carbon (PAC), granular activated carbon (GAC), and pelletized forms, varying by origin material—coconut shell, coal, or wood—and activation method. Major producers and exporters are China, Indonesia, Japan, and India, with coconut-shell-based products commanding premium pricing due to superior pore structure. Buyers should verify iodine number ratings (typically 600–1200 mg/g) and ash content specifications, as these directly determine adsorption efficiency for specific contaminants and application compatibility.
