Activated carbon products

CarbonMax Fine Activated Carbon

CarbonMax Fine Activated Carbon is designed for applications that need rapid adsorption, strong particle control, and consistent process response. With a finer particle profile than standard granular carbon, it delivers higher contact efficiency in liquid-phase systems where fast contaminant capture matters.

Fine Activated Carbon is suitable for water polishing, wastewater treatment, colour removal, process purification, carbon block manufacturing, and selected food, beverage, and industrial applications.

Where It Performs

  • Drinking water polishing
  • Wastewater treatment
  • Colour and odour removal
  • Food and beverage purification
  • Process water treatment
  • Carbon block and cartridge manufacturing
  • Industrial liquid-phase adsorption
  • Emergency or seasonal contaminant control

Why CarbonMax Fine Activated Carbon

  • 100% coconut-shell feedstock for high adsorption performance
  • Controlled particle sizing for improved contact efficiency
  • Low-dust processing for cleaner handling and better filtration behaviour
  • Consistent iodine and ash control for reliable performance
  • Batch-wise COA and technical documentation support
  • Custom particle-size options based on process and filtration requirements

Typical Selection Parameters

Fine Activated Carbon selection depends on target contaminant, contact time, dosage method, filtration setup, pH, ash tolerance, moisture level, and required adsorption response.

CarbonMax can support customers with sample evaluation, grade recommendation, particle-size direction, and supply format based on the application requirement.
