XINGSEN Carbon is a professional manufacturer of activated carbon in China with more than 30 years of experience in activated carbon production and application solutions.
Our pelletized activated carbon is produced through advanced carbonization, activation, grinding, and extrusion processes, providing high adsorption capacity, excellent mechanical strength, low dust generation, and stable performance.
XINGSEN activated carbon pellets are widely used in gas treatment, VOC adsorption, solvent recovery, sulfur removal, air purification, and industrial water treatment.
With customers in more than 80 countries, we provide customized activated carbon solutions based on different operating conditions, including target pollutants, gas composition, humidity, and adsorption requirements.
Coal-based activated carbon pellets are produced from high-quality anthracite coal through carbonization, activation, and extrusion molding processes.
With high mechanical strength and low pressure drop, ideal for fixed-bed adsorbers, coal-based activated carbon pellets are widely used in fixed-bed adsorption systems.
Key Advantages:
• High hardness (≥95%) and low dust generation for long-term fixed-bed operation
• Developed micropore structure with iodine value up to 1100 mg/g
• Thermal regeneration capability without significant capacity loss
Typical Specification:
| Parameter | Value |
| Diameter | 0.8-8 mm |
| CTC | 20-90% |
| Iodine Value | 600-1100 mg/g |
| Hardness | 90-99% |
| Bulk Density | 400-520 kg/m³ |
| Moisture | ≤5-10% |
| Ash | 8-14% |
| pH | 8-11 |
Coal tar-based activated carbon pellets utilize premium coal tar as a binder during production. This creates a strong carbon framework with well-developed porosity and high adsorption capacity for industrial purification applications.
Advantages:
• Ultra-high surface area and bimodal pore structure for large organic molecules
• Excellent adsorption efficiency for heavy metals, phenols, and dye compounds
• Suitable for both gas-phase and liquid-phase applications
Applications:
Wood-based activated carbon pellets are manufactured from selected wood materials through crushing, extrusion, carbonization, and activation processes. using a binder-free extrusion technology.
Compared with coal-based activated carbon, wood-based pellets usually exhibit a more developed mesoporous structure, making them suitable for the adsorption of larger molecules.
Advantages:
• Binder-free process – no coal tar or starch contamination
• Low ash content (≤5%) and high purity, suitable for food/pharma applications
• Well-developed mesoporous structure – ideal for larger molecular adsorption (color, odor, large organics)
Applications:
Typical Specification:
Coconut shell activated carbon pellets are produced from high-quality coconut shell charcoal with highly developed micropores and excellent adsorption performance.
Due to its high iodine value and microporous structure, coconut shell pelletized activated carbon is especially suitable for high-value adsorption applications.
Applications:
Typical Specification:
| Parameter | Value |
| Diameter | 0.8-8 mm |
| CTC | 50-120% |
| Iodine Value | 500-1500 mg/g |
| Hardness | 95-99% |
| Moisture | ≤3% |
Different activated carbon pellets are designed for different adsorption requirements.
| Type | Recommended Applications | Main Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| Coal-Based Activated Carbon Pellets | VOC removal, gas purification | High strength and durability |
| Coal Tar-Based Activated Carbon Pellets | Industrial gas treatment | Strong adsorption performance |
| Wood-Based Activated Carbon Pellets | Odor removal, liquid applications | Developed mesoporous structure |
| Coconut Shell Activated Carbon Pellets | Solvent recovery, high-purity gas treatment | High micropore development |
Common specifications include:
Pelletized activated carbon is an extruded cylindrical activated carbon product with high strength, low dust, and excellent adsorption performance.
Pelletized activated carbon has a uniform cylindrical shape, lower pressure drop, and better mechanical strength, making it suitable for gas-phase adsorption systems.
Common sizes include 0.8mm to 8mm in diameter. Customized sizes are also available.
Yes. XINGSEN provides customized activated carbon pellets based on iodine value, CTC, hardness, ash content, moisture, size, packaging, and application requirements.
CTC (carbon tetrachloride activity) is a better indicator for gas-phase VOC adsorption and solvent recovery. Iodine value is more relevant for liquid-phase applications and small-molecule adsorption. XINGSEN can recommend the right balance based on your target pollutants.
The regeneration cycles depend on contaminant type, operating conditions, and regeneration method. Under suitable conditions, pelletized activated carbon can be regenerated multiple times.
