You can think of activated carbon as space enclosed by carbon atoms. A single gram of activated carbon makes available over 1200m² of surface area for adsorption or chemical reactions. Activated carbon is a distinctive material with its immense capacity for adsorption in gas and liquid phases. It occupies a special place in producing a clean environment involving water and air purification, as well as separations and treatment in the chemical and associated industries.
