White Paper: Activated Carbon Processing
This white paper will discuss activated carbon and how Torrefaction can mitigate processing and handling issues.
Activated carbon is a form of charcoal with millions of tiny pores that increase its surface area, allowing greater adsorption and chemical reaction properties. The activated carbon processing methods create this microporosity, allowing the material to adsorb specific substances or odors from gases or liquids. Just 0.035 ounces of activated carbon have a surface area of over 5300 square feet.
