YK-AC
purestar
YK-AC starts with high-density premium granular coconut shell carbon processed through controlled steam activation to develop a uniform micropore structure with high adsorption capacity. The carbon then undergoes multi-stage deep acid washing and deionized water rinsing to remove soluble mineral ash, metal ions and silica residues from the carbon matrix, achieving ultra-low extractable impurity levels.
As granular coconut shell activated carbon instead of extruded pellets, YK-AC delivers high mechanical strength, low pressure drop and excellent bed uniformity in deep-bed filtration systems. Its neutral effluent pH and minimal leachable metals make it ideal for condensate polishing where even trace levels of ionic contamination can cause boiler corrosion and reduce turbine efficiency. The product is also widely used in semiconductor UPW systems and pharmaceutical water for injection (WFI) pretreatment.

Deep acid-washed ultra-high purity
Multi-stage acid leaching and DI rinsing drastically reduce ash, soluble metals and silica content, minimizing ionic contamination in high-purity water systems.
Uniform pellet structure for deep beds
Consistent cylindrical pellet form ensures even bed packing, stable flow distribution and low pressure drop in deep-bed condensate polishing vessels.
High mechanical strength & low attrition
≥95% hardness resists particle breakage during high-flow operation and backwashing, preventing fine particle carryover to downstream equipment.
Neutral effluent pH
Stable neutral pH output avoids altering water chemistry, protecting boiler tubes, turbines and downstream purification modules from corrosion or degradation.
Excellent organic adsorption capacity
High-activity coconut shell base delivers strong removal of trace TOC and organic contaminants in condensate and high-purity water streams.
Power Plant Condensate Polishing: Condensate return systems in thermal and nuclear plants require removal of trace organics and corrosion products without introducing ionic contamination. YK-AC's deep acid washing and pellet form achieve ultra-low extractables, preventing boiler tube scaling and maintaining turbine efficiency where standard carbon would leach minerals.
Semiconductor UPW Deep Treatment: Advanced fabs need ppb-level organic control with zero metal contamination. YK-AC's multi-stage acid washing and DI rinsing reduce leachable metals and silica to extremely low levels, supporting the strictest ultrapure water specifications.
High-Pressure Boiler Feed Water: High-pressure boilers are extremely sensitive to organic contamination and ionic impurities. YK-AC's neutral effluent pH and minimal leaching prevent corrosion and scaling that would reduce boiler efficiency and lifespan.
Pellet form provides more uniform bed packing and lower pressure drop than granular carbon in deep-bed applications, ideal for high-flow condensate polishing.
Deep acid washing reduces leachable metal ions and silica to extremely low levels, preventing secondary contamination in high-value power and semiconductor equipment.
High-density coconut shell base delivers excellent adsorption capacity for trace organic contaminants with longer service life than coal-based carbons.

Q: What is the difference between YK-AC and PSD-A1 S?
A: PSD-A1 S is granular acid-washed coconut carbon for general high-purity water and POU. YK-AC is pellet-form deep acid-washed carbon specifically engineered for deep-bed condensate polishing with tighter controls on extractable metals, silica and bed hydraulic performance. For general UPW, LC-A0 S is also an option.
Q: Is YK-AC suitable for high-temperature condensate?
A: Yes. YK-AC maintains stable structure and adsorption performance at typical condensate temperatures, suitable for direct installation in condensate polishing loops. For extreme temperature applications, consult our technical team.
Q: Does acid washing reduce adsorption capacity?
A: No. Acid washing removes only soluble mineral ash and impurities without damaging the internal pore network. YK-AC retains full adsorption capacity for organic contaminants. For non-acid-washed pellet alternatives, PLC-370/PLC-470 are available.
