Activated carbon filters

Microporous structure allows high adsorption rates

Activated carbon is fine-grained carbon with a highly porous structure and a very large surface. It is used industrially for eliminating unwanted harmful substances or odours from gases, vapours and liquids or for the recovery of residues. The substances are bound to the activated carbon by adsorption.

Activated carbon is used as a powder, granulated or pressed into pellets or carbon compotes. For selected applications, the activated carbon can be impregnated with chemicals or metal salts.

Our specially treated Likucarb activ is water-regenerable in the removal of hydrogen sulphide, i.e. it is not necessary to remove Likucarb activ for regeneration. It can be regenerated and reused up to 5 times, in special cases up to 10 times.

If different substances are contained in waste gas or raw water, mutual displacement of the occupied surfaces may occur. Likusta’s 30 years of experience with innovative solutions in the field of environmental technology shows here: Highly specialised systems, often in combination with additional cleaning stages, enable an optimal solution.

Of course, we also offer compact or mobile units – entirely according to your needs.
