CARBOSORB
Selective Adsorption for Cleaner Process Streams
CARBOSORB is a high-performance activated carbon range designed for effective removal of colour, odour, organics, and VOCs. Manufactured from high-purity coconut shell or wood, it offers superior adsorption capacity for applications across pharmaceutical, chemical, and industrial processes.
Pore Diffusion, Adsorption & Contaminant Capture
CARBOSORB utilizes a highly porous structure with a wide distribution of micro and macro pores, providing extensive surface area for adsorption. Liquids pass through the carbon bed or are treated via slurry dosing, where impurities are captured through physical adsorption and pore diffusion mechanisms.
Adsorption Capacity, Surface Chemistry & Media Performance
High surface area for superior adsorption efficiency
Low ash, acid-washed and steam-activated quality
High wettability for improved contaminant contact
Strong mechanical strength and abrasion resistance
Suitable for multiple reactivation cycles
Available in granular, powder, and extruded forms

Engineering Considerations
Three forms across one adsorption platform mean CARBOSORB can be specified for exactly the contact time and pressure drop a given process allows, without changing chemistry.
Every process stream has a different separation signature.
