Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) is a fine carbon adsorbent typically ground to 200–325 mesh. It is produced by activating carbon-rich materials such as coconut shells, wood, coal, or fruit shells to create an extensive network of micropores and mesopores.
Its extremely small particle size provides rapid contact with contaminants, making it ideal for applications requiring fast adsorption and efficient purification.
Compared with granular activated carbon (GAC), powdered activated carbon offers:
Because of these advantages, PAC is widely used in water treatment, sugar refining, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and industrial purification systems.
Characterized by a highly developed micropore structure, low ash content, and exceptional purity.
Best for:
Provides a balanced pore structure and an excellent cost-performance ratio.
Best for:
Features abundant mesopores, making it highly effective for removing large organic molecules and pigments.
Best for:
Offers a balance between purity and cost efficiency.
