Desiccants Activated Carbon Powder:
Granular Activated Carbon is produced from anycarbonaceous material like Eucalyptus, Saw dust, Rice Husk, Coal, Wood, Lignite and Coconut Shell but our Granular Activated Carbon is manufactured only from Coconut Shell only, it is hard compared with other carbon and has a higher surface area. It gives more adsorption capacity due to its microporous structure and superior hardness.
Application of Granular Activated Carbon
- Effluent Treatment Plant
- Waste Water Treatment for Reduction in the level of BOD & COD.
- Catalyst in Chemical-Metallurgical Industries & Petroleum Industry.
- Swimming Pools & Soft Drinks Plant for Dechlorination.
- Purification of Drinking Water & Industrial Gases.
- Solvent & Gold Recovery.
- Absorption of Dissolved Organic Matter.
- Water and Gas Mask Filter.
