Need Activated Carbon for water treatment or decolorization? ChemicalDekho connects you with primary manufacturers like Haycarb and Jacobi Carbons (via distributors). Access high-performance carbon media for industrial and municipal use.
Activated Carbon (CAS 7440-44-0) is essential for removing organic pollutants, chlorine, and bad odors from water. In the food and pharma industries, it is used as a decolorizing agent to remove unwanted pigments from syrups and chemicals. Listings cover various base materials including Coal, Wood, and Coconut Shell, each optimized for specific pore sizes.
The platform ensures verified supply with specific Iodine Value and Ash content parameters to guarantee high adsorption performance.

Generally safe. Powdered form may create combustible dust concentrations. Spent carbon may contain concentrated toxic pollutants removed from the process.
Coconut shell carbon has tiny micropores, making it best for drinking water and small molecule removal. Coal-based carbon has larger pores, better for wastewater and decolorizing larger molecules.
It is the standard measure of the activity level of the carbon. A higher iodine value means more surface area and higher adsorption capacity.
Yes, industrial carbon used in large water plants can be thermally reactivated in a kiln to burn off impurities and reused, reducing costs.
No. Charcoal is just wood burned without air. Activated Carbon is charcoal treated with steam or chemicals at very high temperatures to create millions of tiny holes (pores).
