The Science

The Science Behind
Activated Carbon

Activated Carbon is a highly porous material that removes organic compounds, pollutants, contaminants, and other impurities from liquids, gases, chemicals, and metals through a process called adsorption — both physical and chemical accumulation at the interface between liquid and solid phases.

Its extraordinary effectiveness stems from its extremely high surface area and micropore structure — unlocked through steam activation at 900°C. A single gram of Nile Carbon’s coconut shell activated carbon can have a surface area exceeding 1,200 m².

At Nile Carbon, we specialize exclusively in premium coconut shell-based activated carbon — the purest, hardest, and highest-performing raw material for gold recovery, water treatment, and industrial purification applications.

How Adsorption Works
1
Raw Material
Premium coconut shells — high carbon content, low ash
2
Steam Activation · 900°C
Opens micropore structure — creates massive surface area
3
Adsorption Process
Contaminants trapped in pores at liquid/solid interface
4
Pure Output
Clean water, gold-loaded carbon, purified gas

Classification by Form

Three Product Forms

Nile Carbon manufactures activated carbon in three standard forms — choose based on your process requirements and application.

01
Granular Activated Carbon
GAC · Granular
Granular Activated Carbon
Versatile carbon granules for gas, vapor, and liquid purification. Fast diffusion rates and optimal contact time. Best choice for gold recovery and water treatment systems.
Mesh sizes: 4×8, 6×12, 8×16, 12×40
IV: 950–1200 mg/g · Hardness: 95–98%
Applications: Gold CIP/CIL, water, gas
Raw material: Coconut shell · Coal
02
Powdered Activated Carbon
PAC · Powdered
Powdered Activated Carbon
Fine-grade carbon with ultra-high surface area for fast, effective removal of taste, odor, color, and organic contaminants in liquid phase applications.
Mesh sizes: 200, 325, 400 mesh
IV: 800–1100 mg/g · High decolorization
Applications: Food, pharma, water, sugar
Raw material: Coconut shell · Wood · Coal
03
Pelletized Activated Carbon
EAC · Extruded / Pellets
Pelletized Activated Carbon
Durable cylindrical carbon pellets with high CTC for gas phase purification. Low pressure drop and long service life make them ideal for air treatment and solvent recovery.
Diameter: 1.5mm, 3mm, 4mm pellets
CTC: 30–90% · BET: 950–1100 m²/g
Applications: VOC, H₂S, solvent recovery
Also available: Impregnated grades
