what is activated carbon uses ?

Activated carbon is a material used for pollution control, air purification, and water purification. It heats substances to high temperatures and high pressures to turn them into spare carbonaceous materials, forming tiny sponges on their surfaces. The holes and pores increase its specific surface area and have greater adsorption properties. Activated carbon is widely used in wastewater purification, industrial wastewater treatment, air purification, safety and anti-corrosion, pharmaceutical and chemical industry and other fields.

Uses of activated carbon

1. Remove odor

Activated charcoal is an effective material used to stimulate odors. It can absorb and connect odors in the air, such as smoke, ammonia, organic odors, etc. Therefore, it is widely used in daily life, such as refrigerators, cupboards, shoes, cars, etc.

2. Purify the air

There are many harmful substances in the air, such as formaldehyde, benzene, TVOC, etc. These substances are harmful to humans and the environment. Activated carbon can adsorb these harmful substances and purify the air. It is an effective formaldehyde removal material.

3. Purify water

Activated carbon is an important material for water purification. It can remove organic matter, chlorine, precipitation, color, etc. from water. After water is treated with activated carbon, it can reduce the content of harmful substances in the water and improve water quality.

Activated carbon is a multifunctional and widely used material. It can remove odors, purify the air, purify water quality, treat poisoning, act as a preservative, improve breeding efficiency, increase soil fertility, beautify the skin, etc. It has broad application prospects and good development prospects in various fields.
