Häufig gestellte Fragen

Answers to common activated carbon buying questions.

Product Selection

Grade selection, samples, test data and bulk procurement.

How do I choose between GAC, PAC and pelletized activated carbon?

Start with the process. GAC is commonly retained in a fixed bed; PAC is dosed and then separated; pelletized grades are used in many gas-phase beds. The contaminant, contact conditions and equipment determine which grades should be tested.

What information should I send for grade selection?

Provide the target contaminants, inlet concentration or analysis, flow or dose, temperature, pH or humidity, equipment dimensions and required outlet. Tell us how you plan to test the sample.

Is iodine value enough to compare two carbon grades?

No. Review the relevant adsorption method together with particle size, moisture, ash, density and mechanical properties where applicable. Confirm performance with representative process conditions.

Which technical documents should I request?

Ask for the technical data sheet for the exact grade, named test methods, agreed specification limits and relevant handling or packing information. Batch data should be tied to the supplied batch where available.

Can activated carbon be customized for my process?

Discuss raw material, particle form, size range, treatment and packing with the application brief. Confirm the proposed grade, sample results and purchase specification before a bulk order.

Can I replace an existing activated carbon grade with an equivalent?

Send the current grade name or data sheet, operating conditions and acceptance criteria. Compare the proposed material using the same test methods and a representative trial. Similar raw material, particle size or iodine value alone does not establish interchangeability. See the carbon-form comparison checklist.

Samples, Orders & Delivery

Kann ich eine Aktivkohleprobe anfordern?

Share the application and proposed trial method so a representative grade and sample quantity can be discussed. Sample arrangements depend on the specific product and order brief.

What should I confirm before requesting a free sample?

Identify the product or grade, trial quantity, intended test and delivery country. Confirm sample availability, any preparation requirements, courier arrangements and who covers freight before dispatch. Use Kostenlose Probe anfordern to send the trial brief.

What determines MOQ, packing and lead time?

The selected grade, order quantity, packing or labeling requirements and delivery plan determine the quotation. Ask for the minimum order, pack format, readiness date and shipment terms in writing for your specific order. Include recurring demand when discussing OEM or bulk supply.
