Technical Advantages

Ultra-High Purity & Superior Adsorption Kinetics

Sourced from select Southeast Asian coconut shells, our premium coconut shell activated carbon features micropore-dominant structures with iodine values reaching 1000-1500 mg/g.

The low ash content (<3%) and exceptional purity make it the preferred choice for semiconductor ultra-pure water systems, gold recovery (CIP/CIL/CIC processes), and food-grade decolorization.

High mechanical strength (>95%) ensures minimal attrition during backwashing, while the developed surface area (1000-1500 m²/g) provides rapid adsorption kinetics. Available in granular, columnar (PLC), and silver-impregnated (PSD-Ag+) variants for antimicrobial water treatment applications.

FAQ

Q1: What makes GPC-P suitable for catalyst support?

A: GPC-P's controlled surface chemistry provides optimal anchoring sites for metal precursors, while high mechanical strength maintains integrity under reactor conditions.

Q2: Can GPC-P be used for enzyme immobilization?

A: Yes, the surface characteristics of GPC-P are suitable for enzyme and biocatalyst immobilization applications in bioprocessing.

Q3: What metal loading levels are achievable?

A: Typical precious metal loadings of 0.5-5% by weight are readily achieved through standard impregnation techniques. Higher loadings may require specialized protocols.

Q4: Is GPC-P suitable for high-temperature catalysis?

A: GPC-P maintains structural integrity to 200°C in inert atmospheres. For higher temperature applications, graphitized carbon supports may be required.

Q5: Can used catalyst carbon be regenerated?

A: Spent catalyst carbon can often be thermally regenerated or processed for precious metal recovery, depending on contamination type and value of supported metals.
