Carbon black Carbon decolorizing. Powdered and granulated activated carbon used for purification, decolorization, deodorization, separation and recovery in liquid or gas phase, in the chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and food industries (glucose factories, sugar refiners, oil refining, wine treatment) for the treatment of drinking and industrial water, etc. Catalyst supports.

Adsorption from liquid phase can take place at any of the three interfaces liquid-solid, liquid-liquid, or liquid-vapor. In practice, however, more attention has been directed and more is known about the liquid-solid interface. This is due to the fact that purification of liquids such as water, wine, and oils, and their decolorization and detoxification have been carried out for centuries using charcoals and active carbons. With the expansion of chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries the range of substances to be purified by carbons has increased enormously.
