Industrial-Use Activated Carbon Filtration / Purification Of Gases
Principle of operation
Activated Carbon Pollutant Remover removes pollutants through a
process of physical and chemical adsorption. Physical adsorption is
the adsorption of pollutants to the surface of activated carbon by
van der Waals forces (weak charge attraction). Chemical adsorption
refers to the chemical reaction between the pollutant and the
surface of the activated carbon, forming a chemical bond.
Areas of Application:
Water Treatment: In the field of water treatment, activated carbon
is used to remove organic pollutants, residual chlorine, odors and
colors from water. For example, activated carbon filtration is
commonly used in household water purifiers and industrial
wastewater treatment systems.
Chemical Spill Response: In the event of a chemical leak or spill,
activated carbon can be used for emergency containment and cleanup
to limit the spread of hazardous substances.
Soil Remediation: In soil remediation projects, activated carbon is
used to adsorb heavy metals and other toxic substances from soil to
minimize their impact on the environment and human health.
