In ultra-pure water applications, activated carbon is used to eliminate harmful pollutants. Such contaminants may adversely affect the efficiency and assets of an industrial plant, and the purity of water needed to produce microelectronics and photovoltaics.

Activated carbon is known for such essential applications as the most effective and best available technology for eliminating organic and chemical pollutants to fulfill the requirements of process water purity. Different grades can be recommended depending on the customer process conditions, depending on the purity criteria.
