Vina TS2025-01-07T15:16:21+07:00

Activated carbon, a highly absorbent material, has been widely used in many fields, from water treatment to medicine. Among the types of activated carbon, oil-based activated carbon has emerged as a popular choice. So, what makes oil-based activated carbon special compared to other types? Let’s find out in detail in this article.

What is Activated Carbon?

Before we dive into the comparison, we need to understand what activated carbon is. Activated carbon is a form of carbon with a porous structure and a very large surface area. It is this porous structure that gives activated carbon the ability to effectively absorb pollutants, odors, colors, and other organic substances.

Common Types of Activated Carbon

  • Oil-based activated carbon: Produced from by-products of petroleum production.
  • Coal-based activated carbon: Derived from coal.
  • Wood-based activated carbon: Produced from wood or wood products.
  • Coconut-based activated carbon: Derived from coconut shells.
