Section II: Types of Activated Carbon

Activated carbon comes in many varieties due to differences in raw material sourcing, manufacturing methods, appearance, and applications. To date, there is no accurate statistics, with estimates suggesting there are over a thousand different types.

By raw material source

1. Wooden activated carbon

2. Animal bones, blood charcoal

3. Mineral Raw Material Activated Carbon

4. Activated Carbon for Other Raw Materials

5. Activated Carbon Reclamation

By manufacturing method

1. Chemical Activated Carbon (Chemical Carbon)

2. Physical Activated Carbon

3. Activated Carbon - Physical or Physical-Chemical Method

By appearance and shape

Powdered activated carbon

2. Granular activated carbon

3. Non-standard granular activated carbon

4. Cylindrical Activated Carbon

5. Spherical Activated Carbon

6. Other shapes of activated carbon

By aperture size [2]

Large Holes - Diameter > 20,000 nm

Transition Hole Radius: 150 ~ 20,000 nm

Micro-porous activated carbon with a pore radius less than 150nm primarily derives its surface area from the micropores.
