Description
About our Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
ZEEL PRODUCT offering an exceptional range of granulated activated carbon applications and reactivated carbon formulations engineered specifically for the purification of water, air, liquids and gases. ZEEL PRODUCT is proud to provide products that help make pure water and clean air for a better world.
Granular activated carbon is defined as the activated carbon being retained on a 50-mesh sieve. ZEEL PRODUCT produces GACs with a variety of materials, methods and degrees of activation to produce activated carbons designed to meet and exceed the demands of a wide array of applications.
From water treatment to gas phase applications, and from the purification of other aqueous and organic liquids to the treatment of cane sugar liquors and much more — ZEEL PRODUCT offers a wide array of custom-engineered granular activated carbons for a broad range of manufacturing process and environmental applications.
Features & Benefits:
The adsorptive capacity of granular activated carbon (GAC) makes it ideal for removing a variety of contaminants from water, air, liquids and gases. GAC is also an environmentally responsible product that can be reactivated through thermal oxidation and used multiple times for the same application.
By varying manufacturing conditions, internal pore structures are created by imparting unique adsorption properties specific to each product type. The choice of product for a specific application will vary due to differing impurities and proprietary process conditions.

Granular activated carbons are made from rigid raw materials, giving the necessary hardness to avoid excessive losses due to attrition and handling. They present large internal surface of pore structure, ensuring high adsorption power in specific purposes and uses. They are used in fixed or moving beds as columns where the liquid or gas passes through and gets purified. They can be used in liquid or gas phase continous adsorption process and offer unusual economy in cases where carbon regeneration is favorable. In liquid phase applications they remove colloids and organic substances that give undesirable odors, colors and taste to the products. They are efficiently used for water dechlorination in processes which require super chlorination as well as the removal of organic substances from the water. In vapor phase application they participate in the solvent recovery, adsorption of colors, purification of carbon di-oxide and catalyst support. They are also used to reduce the COD and BOD in effluent waste water.
Granular activated carbon is produced from coconut shell charcoal by the process of steam activation. The coconut shell charcoal is fed into the rotary kiln and activated by steam at high temperatures resulting in the evaporation of impurities and opening up of pores on the surface. The resultant big particles are then crushed and sieved to get the desired particle size.
Applications of Granular Activated Carbon :
- It is used in effluent treatment plant to reduce BOD / COD/ color from industrial waste water.
- It removes chlorine and organic impurities from drinking water in the last stage filtration in our common house hold filters.
- It is used as adsorbent of poisonous gases in gas masks for industrial as well as defence purposes.
- To adsorb moisture from compressed air in paint shops.
- To dechlorinate waters in swimming pool and soft drink plant.
- To remove oil from hot condensate.
- Top quality granular activated carbons are used in the process of gold recovery in which the molten ore is passed over a bed of activated carbon where the gold is adsorbed on the carbon and recovered.
- Used to manufacture catalyst.
- Removal of dissolved organic impurities.
- Breweries and distilleries.
- Catalyst carrier in petroleum refineries.
