Global Activated Carbon Market to Grow at Over 12% through 2019, Says TechSci Research
BURNABY, Canada, December 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Growing Awareness About Mercury Emissions, Air and Water Pollution Control, and Increasing use in End User Industries to Boost Global Market for Activated Carbon
Activated carbon is fine powdered, granular or pelletized carbon formed by activating materials that contain carbon, such as coal, wood, coconut shells, olive stones and peat. Thermal and steam treatment of these materials removes the organic content and creates a unique internal pore structure, which significantly increases surface area for adsorption. Activated carbon is largely available in either powered or granular state. Adsorption, reduction, catalysis, mineral recovery, solvent recovery, gas separation, etc. are a few of the major applications of activated carbon, due to which it finds use in diverse end use industries, such as chemical & petrochemical, environment pollution control, pharmaceutical, power, metallurgy, automobile, food & beverage and many others.
