Equipment Services
Calgon Carbon maintains an inventory of liquid phase and vapor phase treatment available for long-term or short-term treatment projects. These systems range in size from 55-gallon drums to 10-foot diameter vessels and can be selected to meet the needs of the application. When the project is completed, the equipment can be returned to Calgon Carbon where it is refurbished for reuse in a new application. If preferred financially, the equipment may be purchased.

Reactivation Process and Advantages
After an activated carbon’s adsorptive capacity has been exhausted, it can be returned to Calgon Carbon for thermal reactivation. In the reactivation process, the spent activated carbon is heated in furnaces devoid of oxygen using steam as a selective oxidant. The adsorbed organics are either volatilized from the activated carbon or pyrolysed to a carbon char. The volatilized organics are destroyed in the furnace’s afterburner and acid gases are removed by means of a chemical scrubber. The high-temperature reaction with steam serves to restore the adsorptive capacity of the activated carbon.
Through reactivation the spent activated carbon can be recycled for reuse, eliminating the costs and long-term liability associated with disposal. The environmental benefits of a reactivated product over a virgin carbon are an efficient, cost-effective alternative, where appropriate.
