• It is also used in industries involved in processing edible oil and sugar, as well as chemical purification.
• The healthcare industry relies on granular Activated Carbon manufacturers, as it is used in personal protective equipment (PPE) and respiratory masks to provide protection against toxic gases.

Different Types of Activated Carbon UK

We offer a wide range of Activated Carbon UK products to cater to the specific needs of various industries. Our product portfolio includes:

1. Powder Activated Carbon
2. Granular Activated Carbon
3. Extruded Activated Carbon
4. Impregnated Activated Carbon
5. Coconut Shell Activated Carbon

1. Powder Activated Carbon

Acid Washed Powder Activated Carbon

This is is a highly affordable method for preserving the effectiveness of AC. Our skilled expertise is utilized in manufacturing Powdered Acid Washed Activated Carbon, guaranteeing efficient, unobstructed, and long-lasting performance. This product is primarily employed in decontaminating food, purifying water, producing beverages, and in pharmaceutical applications. It is also widely utilized in aqua applications such as purifying swimming pools, among others.

Unwashed Powder Activated Carbon

It is primarily employed for eliminating undesirable color, odour, and other impurities. Our product possesses exceptional diffusion properties and a significant level of micro porosity. This product provided by our company serves as a highly effective deodorizer, decolorizer, and exhibits excellent purification qualities. Each of our products is manufactured under the close scrutiny of our experienced and skilled experts in controlled atmospheric conditions.

2. Granular Activated Carbon

Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is characterized by larger particle sizes in comparison to powdered form. This results in a smaller external surface area, making diffusion of the adsorbate a significant factor. As a result, GAC is the preferred choice for absorbing gases and vapours due to its faster diffusion rate. It finds application in water treatment, deodorization, and separation of components in flow systems. GAC can be in the form of either granules or extrusions.

3. Extruded Activated Carbon

Our Pellet AC, made through high temperature steam activation, is carefully manufactured with appropriate binders and strict quality control. The excellent absorption capacity of EAC enables it to effectively eliminate various contaminants from air and gas streams, recover solvents, and control evaporative emissions. EAC for Vapour Phase is suitable for addressing vapour-related issues, including the remediation of vapours, removal of VOCs from the air, soil venting, and elimination of other organic substances like ammonia, sulfur compounds, mercury, and amines.

4. Impregnated Activated Carbon

impregnated with certain chemicals or substances. This impregnation process enhances the carbon's ability to adsorb or remove specific contaminants from air or water. The impregnation is typically done by immersing the AC in a solution containing the desired impregnating material. The carbon then absorbs the impregnating material, which becomes evenly distributed throughout its porous structure.

5. Coconut Shell Activated Carbon

Western Carbon & Chemicals is a prominent coconut shell carbon manufacturer in UK. Our core focus is offering customers world-class products. Our Coconut Shell Activated Carbon has gained immense popularity as a sustainable and efficient material, highlighting economic viability and environmental significance. We produce this carbon from coconut husk, which is a vapours-activated material. The coconut charcoal has a little carbon impression, which makes it efficient to absorb impurities with its micro-pore molecular structure. Its high abrasion resistance and unique chemical and physical characteristics make it suitable for water treatment applications, air purification, energy storage, gold recovery and much more.

The predominance of micro-pores in the AC offers them a tight structure and excellent mechanical strength, making them resistant to wear and tear due to friction. As the top Coconut Activated Carbon manufacturers, we makes this type of AC suitable for chemical and industrial filters. It has a black appearance, granular shape, excellent absorption performance, micro-pore, economic durability and 3% to 5% ash content. The leading Coconut Shell Activated Carbon suppliers in UK offers customization according to iodine value, sieve size, hardness, CTC Absorption and application-specific requirements.

Advantages of Activated Carbon

• It has a high surface area, which allows it to adsorb a wide range of contaminants, including organic compounds, gases, and odor-causing molecules. This makes it effective in removing pollutants and impurities from air, water, and other substances.
• It can effectively remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are harmful chemicals commonly found in household products, paints, and industrial emissions. VOCs can cause respiratory problems and other health issues, so using Activated Carbon filters can help improve indoor air quality.
• It is commonly used in water filtration systems to remove chlorine, heavy metals, pesticides, and other organic compounds. It can also reduce the taste and odor of certain chemicals, making the water more pleasant to drink.
• It is widely used in medical applications, such as in gas masks and respirators, to remove toxic gases and chemicals. It is also used in hospitals to treat drug overdoses and poisonings, as it can adsorb drugs and toxins from the body.
• It is an affordable and easily available option for removing contaminants, making it a popular choice for various industries and applications.
• As top activated carbon producers & Activated Carbon exporters from UK, we offer our products to be used for odor control in air filters, refrigerators, and wastewater treatment plants, as it can effectively adsorb and eliminate unpleasant smells.
• It can be used in the purification of alcoholic beverages and food processing, as it can remove impurities and improve the taste and quality of the final product.
