Activated carbon matched to your process
Five coconut shell-based product families for liquid and gas-phase purification. Each grade is selected around your contaminants, operating conditions and system design.
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
Reliable Adsorption. Consistent Purification.
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is a porous adsorbent designed to remove unwanted impurities, organic compounds, odours, and selected contaminants from liquids and gases. Its granular structure supports effective contact between the process stream and the carbon surface, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial purification and filtration applications.
At GR Carbon, our focus is on providing activated carbon solutions suited to specific process requirements, helping customers achieve dependable purification performance and efficient operation.
Key Benefits
- Effective adsorption of targeted contaminants
- Suitable for liquid- and gas-phase treatment applications
- Adaptable to a range of filtration system designs
- Available for application-specific selection, subject to product specifications
Typical Applications
- Water and wastewater treatment
- Industrial process water purification
- Air and gas purification
- Odour and colour reduction
- Chemical and process industries
Find the Right Grade
The appropriate grade depends on the target contaminant, operating conditions, particle size, and required treatment performance. Contact GR Carbon to discuss your application and product requirements.
Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC)
Rapid Adsorption. Targeted Treatment.
Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) is a finely divided adsorbent used in treatment processes where rapid dispersion and effective contact with the process stream are required. Its fine particle size makes it suitable for applications involving the reduction of selected organic impurities, colour, taste, and odour, depending on the carbon grade and process conditions.
GR Carbon aims to support industrial and treatment applications with powdered activated carbon solutions selected according to process requirements and desired treatment outcomes.
Key Benefits
- Fine particle structure for effective contact with the process stream
- Suitable for batch and continuous treatment processes, where system design permits
- Flexible application across various liquid-treatment operations
- Available in grades suited to specific treatment requirements
Typical Applications
- Drinking water and wastewater treatment
- Industrial effluent treatment
- Colour, taste, and odour reduction
- Chemical and process industries
- Selected food and beverage treatment applications, subject to grade suitability
Find the Right Grade
Selection depends on the contaminant, dosage requirements, contact time, filtration method, and required treatment performance. Contact GR Carbon to discuss the right solution for your process.
Pelletized Activated Carbon
Structured Performance. Efficient Gas Treatment.
Pelletized Activated Carbon is manufactured in cylindrical shapes to support controlled airflow and adsorption in suitable gas-treatment systems. Its defined geometry can help reduce pressure drop compared with some alternative media, depending on pellet dimensions, bed design, and operating conditions.
GR Carbon’s pelletized carbon offering is intended for applications where gas-flow characteristics, adsorption requirements, and operating conditions influence product selection.
Key Benefits
- Defined cylindrical particle geometry
- Suitable for selected gas-phase adsorption systems
- Supports airflow management in appropriately designed filter beds
- Available for application-specific requirements, subject to product specifications
Typical Applications
- Industrial air purification
- Odour control and ventilation systems
- Volatile organic compound (VOC) treatment, where the grade is suitable
- Industrial exhaust and process gas treatment
- Air filtration systems
Find the Right Grade
The ideal product depends on the target gas, concentration, humidity, operating temperature, required adsorption capacity, and system design. Contact GR Carbon for assistance with product selection and technical requirements.
Impregnated Activated Carbon
Specialised Adsorption. Application-Driven Protection.
Impregnated Activated Carbon is a specialised adsorbent treated with selected chemical agents to enhance the capture or removal of specific contaminants. Unlike conventional activated carbon, which primarily works through physical adsorption, impregnated grades can also support chemical interactions with targeted gases and vapours.
GR Carbon’s impregnated carbon solutions can be selected according to the contaminants of concern and the operating conditions of the intended application, subject to available product grades.
Key Benefits
- Designed for targeted contaminant removal
- Combines a porous carbon structure with selected impregnating agents
- Suitable for specialised gas-treatment applications
- Can be selected according to specific process and treatment requirements
Typical Applications
- Removal of selected acidic gases
- Specialised industrial air purification
- Gas-phase odour control
- Chemical vapour treatment
- Industrial safety and process filtration systems, where the grade is approved for the intended use
Find the Right Grade
Performance depends on the impregnating agent, target contaminant, gas concentration, humidity, temperature, and contact time. Contact GR Carbon to identify a suitable grade for your application.
Acid Washed Activated Carbon
Lower Ash. Higher Purity.
Acid Washed Activated Carbon is washed with acid after activation to reduce ash content and soluble minerals such as iron and calcium. The lower mineral content helps limit unwanted leaching into the process stream, making it suitable for applications where product purity and stable pH are important.
GR Carbon’s acid washed grades are produced from coconut shell-based carbon and can be selected according to purity requirements, particle size and the intended application, subject to product specifications.
Key Benefits
- Reduced ash and acid-soluble mineral content
- Lower risk of mineral leaching into treated liquids
- Supports processes with strict purity requirements
- Available for application-specific selection, subject to product specifications
Typical Applications
- Food and beverage processing, subject to grade suitability
- Pharmaceutical ingredient purification
- Drinking water and high-purity water treatment
- Chemical purification
- Gold recovery circuits, where the grade is suitable
Find the Right Grade
Selection depends on the required ash level, acid-soluble content, pH, particle size and process conditions. Contact GR Carbon to discuss the right grade for your process.
