Activated Carbon Absorption
Activated carbon is a highly porous functional material with a huge specific surface area, commonly used for absorption and purification in environmental industries. There is a clear difference between absorption and adsorption. Activated carbon mainly uses physical adsorption based on van der Waals forces.
Its abundant micro-pores can effectively capture organic pollutants, peculiar smell, residual chlorine and harmful impurities in water and air. It is widely used in water plant filtration, fish tank maintenance, indoor formaldehyde removal and industrial waste gas treatment.
When the carbon pores reach saturation, it can be regenerated through high-temperature treatment for secondary use. As an eco-friendly and low-cost material, it plays an irreplaceable role in modern purification engineering.
