The Chemviron manufacturing process is designed to produce re-agglomerated bituminous coal-based carbons which have been shown to have superior performance in numerous applications, particularly for the purification of water.
Chemviron also produces catalytic activated carbons which have enhanced properties over standard activated carbons for the removal of chloramines, hydrogen sulphide, and many other difficult-to-remove contaminants in the liquid and vapor phase. These include the range of Centaur® granular carbons.
At our dedicated production plant in the UK, Chemviron produces activated carbon in the form of activated carbon cloth which is produced in woven and knitted forms. The FLEXSORB® cloth is 100% activated carbon and has a microporous structure which results in rapid adsorption kinetics and the capability to adsorb to a higher level of purity.
At our specialised carbon production facility in the UK, Chemviron impregnates both granular and pelletised carbon with a range of chemicals to provide enhanced purification properties for specific applications. These include a range of specialised carbons for respirators, collective and personal protection filters as well as a series of carbons for industrial air filters and biogas and biomethane applications.
For high purity, pharmaceutical or low pH applications, Chemviron produces a range of acid-washed coal, coconut and wood-based carbons with low pH or low acid soluble iron contents.
For selective air treatment applications, Chemviron also supplies acid-washed coconut-based carbons for treating air streams containing sensitive VOCs such as ketones.
Kuraray has had over 40 years of experience in the energy storage market and its YP and Kuranode product series are the industry standard for activated carbons used in ultracapacitors, lithium-ion batteries, and sodium-ion batteries. With our joint commitment to R&D and quality, we are continually developing superior-performing products to revolutionize the market with superior electrochemical performance and high purity.
Chemviron manufactures a range of carbon molecular sieves from coconut shell bases designed to have a high selectivity for separating nitrogen from oxygen.
Chemviron has an exceptional production capability for manufacturing a wide range of activated carbons and so provides a long-term critical security of supply for products highly effective for removing a variety of contaminants from water, air, liquids, and gases.
Once used, the spent granular or pelletised activated carbon can be thermally recycled or reactivated in one of Chemviron’s custom-designed carbon reactivation furnaces, for reuse in similar applications and reducing the CO2 footprint of our technology. Combining reactivation with Chemviron’s specially designed and high-quality activated carbons means that customers can benefit from a cost-effective and sustainable purification solution.
Chemviron remains an innovator in developing new or modified carbons and new uses for activated carbons, providing practical expertise and technical support to enable the most effective application of the activated carbon. With Chemviron, you get the expertise of an industry leader in activated carbon backed by a service you can trust.
