Activated carbon is a porous material that removes organic compounds from liquids and gases by a process known as “adsorption.” In adsorption, organic molecules contained in a liquid or gas are attracted and bound to the surface of the pores of the activated carbon as the liquid or gas is passed through.
The primary raw material used in the production of the Company’s activated carbons is bituminous coal which is crushed, sized and processed in low temperature bakers followed by high temperature furnaces. This heating process is known as “activation,” and develops the pore structure of the carbon.

Activated Carbon Reactivation/Recycle
Calgon Carbon has been a green company for years
– with its reactivation of spent activated carbon program. After an activated carbon’s adsorptive capacity has been exhausted, it can be returned to Calgon Carbon for thermal reactivation. This spent carbon can be reactivated for the ultimate disposal of contaminants, or safely and cost-effectively recycled back to facilities for continued use. With carbon reactivation facilities in the United States, Europe and Japan, Calgon Carbon makes it easy to go green!
