What is wood based activated carbon best for?

Wood based carbon excels at decolorization due to its high mesopore volume and methylene blue value. Ideal for sugar refining, pharmaceutical purification, MSG production, and food & beverage processing.

How is wood carbon different from coal or coconut?

Wood carbon is phosphoric acid activated with the highest mesopore ratio, best for decolorization. Coal carbon is steam activated with balanced pores. Coconut has the most micropores for small molecule adsorption.

What certifications do you have?

Our wood based carbon is ISO 9001, ISO 14001, HALAL, KOSHER, and FCC certified. Food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade available.

Can you customize specifications?

Yes, we customize methylene blue value (80-220 mg/g), particle size, pH, moisture content, and packaging to your requirements.

Sustainable, high-mesopore carbon for decolorization and purification.

Product Overview

Our wood-based activated carbon is produced from sustainable forestry resources using phosphoric acid (chemical) activation. This process creates a carbon with predominantly mesoporous structure and exceptionally high methylene blue adsorption value, making it the preferred choice for decolorization applications.

Wood-based carbon excels in removing large organic molecules, color bodies, and impurities from liquid-phase applications. Its low ash content and high purity make it suitable for food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade applications where product contamination must be minimized.

Key Applications

Sugar decolorization
Pharmaceutical purification
MSG production
Citric acid refining
Wine & spirits clarification
Chemical intermediate purification
Vegetable oil refining
Wastewater COD reduction

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes wood carbon different?

Wood carbon has the highest mesopore volume (2-50nm pores), giving it superior decolorization performance for large organic molecules like pigments and dyes.

What is it best for?

Sugar decolorization, pharmaceutical purification, MSG production, and food-grade decolorization. Highest methylene blue value (up to 280 mg/g) among all carbon types.

Is wood carbon sustainable?

Yes, produced from sustainably sourced sawdust and wood chips — byproducts of the timber industry.

Phosphoric acid vs steam activation?

Phosphoric acid produces higher mesopore volume (better decolorization). Steam activation produces more micropores (better general adsorption).

What is the MOQ?

MOQ is 3 tons. Free samples available. Standard delivery 7-10 days.

Need a Custom Specification?

We customize methylene blue value, particle size, pH, and packaging to your exact requirements.
