What is Activated Carbon?

Activated carbon manufacturing is the industrial process of producing highly porous carbon materials with excellent adsorption properties, widely used for purification and filtration. It typically involves carbon-rich raw materials such as coconut shells, wood, coal, or peat. The process begins with carbonization, where the raw material is heated in the absence of oxygen to remove volatile components and create a char. This is followed by activation, either through physical methods using steam or carbon dioxide, or chemical methods using activating agents, to develop a large surface area and pore structure. The final product is processed, graded, and packaged for applications in water treatment, air purification, and industrial processes.
