Activated carbon deodorization
Activated carbon deodorization is a process based on the adsorption of contaminants in air or water by activated carbon. Activated carbon is a porous material that has a large specific surface area and high adsorption capacity.
Deodorization and gas treatment with activated carbon
Activated carbon deodorization and activated carbon gas treatment are similar processes based on the adsorption of contaminants in air or water by activated carbon.
Treatment of gasses using activated carbon
- This is used to remove toxic gases and other air pollutants,
- It is based on the adsorption phenomenon, where contaminated air is passed through an activated carbon filter and the contaminants adhere to its surface.
- Gas treatment equipment using activated carbon is designed based on the contaminants to be eliminated.
Activated carbon deodorization
- Used to eliminate odours in air or water.
- It is based on the adsorption phenomenon, where the air or water flow is passed through an activated carbon filter and the contaminants adhere to its surface.
- Activated carbon deodorization equipment is designed based on the contaminants to be removed, such as H2S and the mercaptans.
How effective is activated carbon deodorization compared to other methods?
Activated carbon deodorization is highly effective in the elimination of unwanted odours, thanks to its capacity to adsorb a wide variety of volatile organic compounds and gases.
Compared to other methods of odour removal, such as oxidation and biofiltration, activated carbon is considered one of the most effective methods.
In addition, activated carbon is a low cost, easy to maintain natural filter medium, making it an economical and convenient option for odour removal.
The activated carbon deodorization process is used in different sectors, including the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries as well as water treatment, to eliminate odours, toxic gases and other contaminants.
