Granular Activated Carbon
Granular activated carbon is defined as the activated carbon made from raw organic material such as Coconut Shell or Coal. Granular Activated carbon are defined as material which are retained on a 50-mesh sieve. Hytech Carbons produces GACs with a variety of materials, methods and degrees of activation to produce activated carbons designed to meet and exceed the demands of a wide array of applications.
From water treatment to gas phase applications, and from the purification of other aqueous and organic liquids to the treatment of cane sugar liquors and much more — Hytech Carbons offers a wide array of custom-engineered granular activated carbons for a broad range of manufacturing process and environmental applications.
