Catalytic Activated Carbon
Activated Carbon VS Catalytic Carbon
- Activated carbon refers to carbon that has been activated by general physical or chemical methods without any special treatment.
Generally, it can effectively remove odors, colors and some chemicals through physical adsorption.
- Catalytic Carbon is divided into two types: one is activated carbon with catalytic properties after high temperature modification, and the other is catalytic activated carbon loaded with catalysts.
- This article mainly describes the surface-modified coconut shell granular catalytic activated carbon treated with high temperature, which is not impregnated with caustic chemicals.
“Catalytic” or “surface-modified” activated carbon removes chloramines and H2S from water
Catalytic activated carbon is a specialized type of activated carbon specifically designed for the removal of chloramines and hydrogen sulfide from drinking water.
This innovative material retains all the adsorption properties of traditional activated carbons while also possessing unique catalytic capabilities that facilitate chemical reactions.
Catalytic Carbon Key Features:
- Adsorption Efficiency: Catalytic carbon has a high surface area, enabling it to effectively adsorb contaminants like chloramines, which are commonly found in municipal water supplies.
- Chemical Reaction Promotion: Unlike standard activated carbons, catalytic carbon can enhance chemical processes, making it particularly useful in advanced water treatment applications.
- Versatile Applications: Its ability to target specific pollutants makes catalytic carbon ideal for various settings, including residential water filtration systems and industrial wastewater treatment.
Overall, catalytic carbon stands out as a powerful solution for ensuring cleaner and safer drinking water by combining traditional adsorption techniques with advanced catalytic functions.

Safe and effective
What Are The Hazards Of Chloramines And Hydrogen Sulfide?
Chloramines are compounds of chlorine and ammonia, commonly used as disinfectants in water treatment. Although chloramines can effectively inhibit bacterial growth, their residues in water may also pose potential carcinogenic health risks to the respiratory system, skin irritation, etc.
Hydrogen sulfide
Hydrogen sulfide is a gas with a strong odor, usually produced during the decomposition of organic matter or in certain industrial processes.
Hydrogen sulfide is a neurotoxin. Long-term exposure to low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide may pose a health hazard and affect the function of the nervous system and respiratory system.
For drinking water, consider using an effective water treatment and filtration system to remove harmful substances.
In short, although chloramines and hydrogen sulfide do not necessarily cause immediate serious health effects at a certain concentration, long-term exposure or high-concentration exposure should be taken seriously and appropriate protective measures should be taken to ensure safety.
Catalytic Activated Carbon Not Impregnated With Chemicals-Heycarb
Since catalytic carbon does not contain impregnants, it is made by changing the high temperature environment, thereby changing the surface structure of activated carbon. This gives it the highest catalytic activity for reducing chloramines and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in water. This catalytic function far exceeds that of traditional activated carbon. Catalytic carbon is a cost-effective method for treating hydrogen sulfide concentrations up to 20 to 30ppm.
Catalytic carbon converts adsorbed hydrogen sulfide into water-soluble sulfuric acid and sulfurous acid, so the carbon system can be regenerated by water washing, thereby reducing the frequency of replacement and restoring its ability to treat hydrogen sulfide.
Since there is no impregnation chemical, its physical adsorption performance will not decrease, the ignition point will not decrease, and storage is safer.
The Benefits of Using Catalytic Carbon:
- More effective than traditional activated carbon; catalytic activity promotes a wide range of chemical reactions
- Catalysis means faster chemical reactions, which means using less carbon and smaller water filters
- Non-impregnated carbon eliminates concerns about exothermic reactions, ignition temperatures, and toxic disposal
- On-site regeneration reduces operating costs and extends service life
- Can be recovered and reused through high temperature regeneration
