CARBOSORB

How It Works

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.

Key Features

• 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

Applications

Pharmaceutical & API

• Decolourization of intermediates and final products
• Removal of trace organics and impurities
• Purification of solvents and process streams

Chemical & Fine Chemicals

• Colour and odour removal from specialty chemicals
• VOC removal from liquid streams
• Catalyst purification and polishing

Water & Wastewater Treatment

• Removal of dissolved organics and contaminants
• Polishing of treated water
• Odour control in process water

Food & Beverage

• Decolourization and purification of edible products
• Removal of off-flavours and impurities

Petrochemical & Refining

• Hydrocarbon purification
• Removal of trace contaminants and organics

Forms & Variants

• CARBOSORB G - granular activated carbon (0.2-5 mm)
• CARBOSORB P - powder activated carbon (<0.18 mm)
• CARBOSORB E - extruded activated carbon (0.8-5 mm)

Note

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.
