Activated carbon is a very versatile adsorbent and can therefore be useful in a wide variety of applications. For example, activated carbon is used as a catalyst or, due to its large inner surface area, as a catalyst carrier. Activated carbon is also indispensable in the field of gas protection and is also used in the automotive sector to remove unpleasant odors from the supply air of the air conditioning system.

The BET surface area is a parameter for comparing the inner surface area of different activated carbons. A high inner surface area is not necessary for every application, sometimes it is even undesirable.
On the one hand, a small particle diameter in an adsorber leads to faster kinetics, but on the other hand, the pressure loss of the bed increases rapidly. This is usually paid for with the electrical power of a compressor. We pay attention to the balance of both aspects.
Specific activated carbon qualities have proven themselves for certain applications and lead to the best price-performance ratio. We know which quality you need and will supply you with it.
