High-Efficiency Odor & VOC Removal Systems by P&M Engineering

Activated carbon filters are one of the most reliable final-stage treatment solutions when high purification efficiency, low operating cost, and simple maintenance are required.

Operation & Technology

Activated carbon systems rely on the physical adsorption of pollutants onto the surface of the carbon medium.

The air stream passes through the carbon bed at the appropriate velocity, allowing contaminants to adhere to the large internal surface of the activated carbon. The system’s efficiency depends on the contact time between air and carbon.

Depending on the pollutant type, we use:

• Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
• Impregnated activated carbon for H₂S, NH₃, or acidic gases
• Special grades for VOCs, solvents, or high organic load
• Activated alumina
• Zeolite

Correct selection of carbon type, grain size, and quantity is essential for efficient and economical operation.
