Product parameters
Activated carbon selection table.
Recommended starting ranges for technical discussion. Final values depend on the stream, test method and buyer specification.
| Carbon option | Iodine value | Typical size | Suitable conditions | Selection effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wood PAC | 900–1200 mg/g | 200 mesh typical | API/intermediate decolorization | Developed mesopores for larger color bodies |
| Acid-washed PAC | 900–1100 mg/g | 200–325 mesh | High-purity liquid processing | Reduced mineral impurities |
| Coconut shell PAC | 1000–1200 mg/g | 200 mesh | Trace-organic polishing | Strong micropore adsorption |
| Granular high-purity carbon | 1000–1200 mg/g | 12×40 mesh | Continuous purified-water polishing | Low dust; fixed-bed operation |

Frequently asked questions
Technical answers for buyers.
Need a faster review? Send the available process data with your inquiry.
Yes. Share your process data and target limits so we can prepare a relevant evaluation sample. Freight is normally paid by the buyer.
Iodine value, particle size, strength, moisture and packing can be discussed against the equipment and required outlet quality.
Please provide the stream composition, target contaminants, inlet and outlet limits, flow, temperature, humidity or pH, contact time and current equipment.
Service life depends on actual contaminant loading, competing compounds and operating conditions. Pilot testing and breakthrough monitoring provide the most reliable estimate.
