Industrial Process Economics Reports About Activated Carbon Activated Carbon is a form of carbon processed to have small, low-volume pores that increase the surface area available for adsorption or chemical reactions. It is commonly used in gas purification, decaffeination, metal extraction, gold purification, water purification, medicine, sewage treatment, air filters in gas masks and respirators, filters in compressed air and other applications.
Understand
The Intratec portfolio (www.intratec.us/our-portfolio) includes reports examining specific Activated
Activated Carbon
Carbon production processes. Each report presents one-time costs associated with the construction
production costs
of an industrial plant and the continuing costs associated with the daily operation of such a plant. General information included in our reports is presented below.
