Activated carbon is one of the most effective media for removing a wide range of contaminants from industrial and municipal waste waters, landfill leachate and contaminated ground. As the world’s most powerful adsorbent, it can cope with a wide range of contaminants. Different contaminants may be present in the same discharge and carbon may be used to treat the total flow, or it may be better utilized to remove specific contaminants as part of a multistage approach.
As with potable water, Ceycarb has a dedicated reactivation facility that handles industrial grades of spent carbon. If required, the spent carbon can be returned and kept segregated – custom reactivation of the carbon can be taken from, and returned to, an industrial pool of carbon.
The specification and quality of this material is tightly controlled, ensuring the customer receives a reliable product. With dedicated industrial tankers and mobile equipment, Ceycarb, can provide an exceptional service that helps customers meet and exceed their environmental responsibilities.
Whilst direct environmental protection is essential the reuse of water in industrial processes will provide reduced environmental impact of a site, whilst offering potential cost savings on waste water disposal and clean water supply. The typical range of environmental water contaminants that activated carbon is used to treat includes:
- Non-biodegradable organic compounds
- Adsorbable Organic Halogens (AOX)
- Toxicity
- Colour
- Inhibitory compounds for biological treatment systems
- Aromatic compounds
- Chlorinated/halogenated organic compounds
- Pesticides
In general, certain level of free chlorine have to be maintained in order to guarantee adequate disinfection considerable amounts of organic matter are introduced in to pool water namely by bathers urine and sweat. Hence, the removal of disinfection by products such as trihalomethanes (THM) , Haloacetic acids (HAAS ) , AOX , chloroamines and organic compounds is required in swimming pool water treatment.
Ceycarb offers different types of Granular (GAC) and powdered Activated carbon (PAC) grades for different cost-effective pool water treatment applications.
Waste water treatment has become very important now a days and activated carbon consumption for adsorption of toxic substances and pollutants that are not easily bio-degradable , and removal of micro pollutants, COD and AOX (Adsorbable Organic Halogens ) colour and odour gaining steadily in importance.
Ceycarb offers wide range of products both in powder and granular forms for waste water treatment applications such as PACT process, physio-chemical water treatment processes etc.
These products are widely used in petroleum, textile, sugar and paper industries.
Removing of odours emitted from waste water and sewage treatment plants
Waste water and sewage treatment plants emit malodours compounds which are needed to be removed before it spread to the atmosphere.
Ceycarb offers you different grades of activated carbon products to eliminate such malodourus compounds such as Ammonia, H2S , mercaptans , aldihydes , methylamine , acetic acid , organic vapours etc.
In ornamental fish farming and in hatcheries, water is contaminated with toxins due to animal excrement and decomposing foods.
Ceycarb offers special products for removing such pollutants and treatment of aquarium water.
For industries such as beverages and certain food processing, water is an essential raw material which is needed to be purified with intensive care. In other uses of water for process applications like boiler feed water treatment and condensate and contact water treatment applications, water has to be treated.
Ceycarb offers different grades including water washed, acid washed carbon with low silica content and low iron content.
Boiler Feed water Treatment
Properly treated water has to be fed to the boilers in order to prevent problems such as:
- VOC carry over to the steam
- Over consumption of boiler water treatment chemicals
- Corrosion
- Foaming
- Scaling
Ceycarb offers low silica activated carbon grades for this application.
