Pellet/Columnar activated carbon

AP-PAC800-1100 is a highly effective adsorbent for removing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial air streams. Its extensive microporous structure provides a immense surface area that physically traps and retains VOC molecules through adsorption forces. Common applications include paint booths, chemical processing, and wastewater treatment facilities. GAC systems efficiently capture benzene, toluene, xylene, and other hydrocarbons, ensuring regulatory compliance and improving air quality.

Application scenarios:

Air Purification、Tank treatment、Solvent recovery、CO2 adsorb、VOCs removal

Working principle

Coal-based columnar activated carbon is produced from bituminous or lignite coal through crushing, binder-mixing, extrusion, carbonization, and steam activation. This process creates a predominantly meso-macroporous structure (pores 2–50 nm and >50 nm), complemented by a moderate micropore volume. Its surface chemistry includes oxygen-containing functional groups that enhance chemisorption for polar molecules. In fixed-bed columns, the cylindrical shape ensures uniform flow distribution and low pressure drop, allowing contaminants—such as large organic molecules, dyes, and certain heavy metals—to be physically adsorbed via van der Waals forces within its broad pore network.

Product Advantages

1. Cost-Effective: Made from abundant coal reserves, offering significantly lower raw material costs than coconut shell carbons—ideal for large-scale or disposable applications.
2.Broad Pore Size Distribution: Meso-macropores effectively capture larger organic molecules (e.g., humic acids, dyes, and industrial solvents) that micropore-dominant carbons cannot accommodate.
3.Versatile Surface Chemistry: Can be chemically impregnated (e.g., with sulfur, silver, or caustic) to enhance removal of specific gases like hydrogen sulfide, mercury, or acidic fumes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Have Questions? We're Here to Help.

How to choose activated carbon?

Identify the pollutants to be adsorbed; examine key indicators; and conduct small-scale trials to verify the results, taking into account cost.

Does higher iodine number mean better activated carbon?

No. The iodine value only indicates the number of micropores and is suitable for small molecules; if processing large molecules, the methylene blue value and the proportion of mesopores need to be considered.

What activated carbon is suitable for water treatment?

Drinking water/odor removal: Coconut shell charcoal (high micropores); Municipal high-flow-rate charcoal: Coal-based charcoal (high strength); Industrial wastewater decolorization: Wood-based charcoal (well-developed mesopores); Specific selection requires flexibility.

Which carbon is suitable for VOC removal?

Granular activated carbon (general purpose), honeycomb activated carbon (high airflow, low resistance), and fiber felt (high-requirement applications) are all available.

Can you provide samples?

Yes. You can contact us to select samples, specifying the quantity and requirements.

Can activated carbon specifications be customized?

Yes. Particle size, column diameter, honeycomb size, pore size, and iodine value/CTC can all be customized to your needs.
