Expertise Hub
In the Cargen Expertise Hub our experts share their know-how on active carbon and filtration technology.
What laboratory results don’t tell us about adsorption performance in practice
Why does activated carbon sometimes perform differently in practice than in the laboratory?
Why is there no more focus on biobased source materials for activated carbon?
Why is biobased activated carbon not automatically the most sustainable choice?
Why the pore size distribution of activated carbon is more important than the specific or internal surface area
How does knowledge of the pore size distribution lead to the right carbon selection?
What is the influence of the source material on the application possibilities of activated carbon?
How does the source material affect the performance and lifespan of activated carbon?
Can activated carbon be used for the removal of PFAS and is there such a thing as ‘PFAS carbon’?
What factors make the difference between successful and failing PFAS adsorption, and why is the…
What do the iodine number and CTC value tell us about the quality of activated carbon – and what do they not tell us?
Iodine number and CTC value are widely used quality indicators for activated carbon, but extrapolating…
