DESOTEC activated carbon and DESOTEC activated carbon filters are high quality products, produced and supplied to the highest standards and specifications.

Overview of the DESOTEC activated carbon product range::

• GRANULAR »
  Typical applications
  Wastewater (COD, colour, and odour removal), groundwater remediation, drinking water (removal of pesticides), process water, de-chlorination, de-ozonisation, purification of food, chemicals, beverages, ...
   
• EXTRUDED »
  Typical applications
  Air purifcaiton, removal of VOC, BTEX, halogens and solvents, de-odourisation, air conditioning, gas masks, solvent recovery, cigarette filters, fruit storage (control CO₂ level), de-oiling of compressed gas, process gases cleaning (N₂, CO removal from H₂, alcohol from CO₂, organic sulphur from CH₄ etc ...)
   
• IMPREGNATED »
  Typical applications
  In the field of air and gas purification, carbon can be impregnated with chemicals to enhance the capacity to remove contaminants. Impregnated carbons have been specifically formulated for many chemical compounds which have proven to be difficult to control with standard activated carbons. Examples of these compounds include ammonia, mercury, sulphur dioxide, hydrogen sulphide, ethylene, hydrogen chloride, chlorine, methyl iodide, formaldehyde, and hydrogen cyanide.
   
• POWDER »
  Typical applications
  Biofloc improvement, fluegas treatment, dioxin and mercury removal, catalyst, purification of foods, drinks and chemicals, etc
