What is Granulated Activated Carbon？
Granulated activated carbon is a porous material made from carbonized materials (such as coal or coconut shells) through high-temperature activation. It appears as irregular black granules with a highly developed pore structure and excellent adsorption properties, capable of adsorbing a variety of harmful substances and gases.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is granular activated carbon and what is it used for?
+
-
Granulated activated carbon is a highly porous carbon material in loose, granular form. It is widely used in water and air purification systems to capture and remove harmful chemicals, unpleasant odors, and organic pollutants through a process called adsorption. Its large surface area makes it ideal for filtration applications across residential, industrial, and municipal systems.
Which contaminants does GAC help remove from water?
+
-
GAC filters are effective in removing chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), disinfection by-products (DBPs) like trihalomethanes, pesticides, and unpleasant tastes or odors from drinking water. It is also helpful in reducing certain heavy metals and chemical residues, making it a preferred choice in activated carbon water treatment.
How to select the right mesh size of gAC activated carbon?
+
-
The mesh size of GAC affects both flow rate and adsorption efficiency. Common grades include 8×30, 12×40, and 20×50, where lower numbers represent larger granules. Coarser mesh is ideal for higher flow systems, while finer mesh offers better contaminant removal due to increased surface area.
Can spent granular activated carbon be reused?
+
-
Yes, used GAC can be thermally reactivated through high-temperature processing to restore its adsorption capacity. This process is common in industrial applications for cost savings and sustainability. Some newer methods, such as electrochemical regeneration, are also being explored for eco-friendly carbon reuse.
What are the main uses of gAC granular activated carbon?
+
-
GAC is versatile and widely used in:
Drinking water purification
Air and gas filtration
Solvent and chemical recovery
Industrial emission control
Wastewater treatment
Aquarium and pool filtration
These applications demonstrate why GAC remains one of the most effective solutions in environmental remediation and filtration industries.
