Adsorption vs. Absorption: The Difference for Carbon Filters

What is Activated Carbon? Activated carbon includes a wide range of amorphous carbon-based materials prepared to exhibit a high degree of porosity and an extended interparticulate surface area. These qualities give activated carbon excellent adsorbent characteristics that make carbon very useful for a wide variety of processes including filtration, purification, deodorization, decolorization, purification and separation.
