Extruded activated carbon is a highly adapted form of activated carbon used mainly for water, air, alcohol and other liquid filtration. This type of activated carbon is created by extruding together small particles of activated carbon into a block-like form. An extrusion process is used to create extremely porous channels, providing greater surface area for better removal of contaminants. These properties enable it to effectively remove contaminants such as heavy metals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other water toxins.
Usage
Activated carbon is used in methane and hydrogen storage, air purification, capacitive deionization, supercapacitive swing adsorption, solvent recovery, decaffeination, gold purification, metal extraction, water purification, medicine, sewage treatment, air filters in respirators, filters in compressed air, teeth whitening, production of hydrogen chloride, edible electronics,and many other applications.
