Technical resources for activated carbon selection
Black Opal resources connect activated carbon product families with industrial applications across water treatment, gold recovery, air and gas purification, refinery service, catalytic carbon, and specialty purification. Detailed TDS, certificates of analysis where applicable, and grade recommendations are shared after the application, product family, packing requirement, and destination-market documentation are confirmed.
Water treatment activated carbon
GAC, PAC, impregnated, washed, pH-adjusted, and catalytic grades for drinking water, process water, wastewater polishing, taste, odor, VOC, pesticide, THM, and chloramine-related applications.
View applicationGold recovery activated carbon
High-hardness microporous coconut shell carbon for CIP, CIC, and tank-adsorbed recovery systems where adsorption rate, loading capacity, low dust, and attrition resistance matter.
View applicationCatalytic activated carbon
CATCARB surface-modified coconut shell carbon for chloramine reduction, hydrogen sulfide control, taste and odor treatment, and specialty water-treatment requirements.
View productGranular vs powdered activated carbon
A practical comparison of GAC and PAC based on system design, contact method, particle size, handling, and application fit.
