Increasing focus on water treatment and air purifications in recent years has
demonstrated energetic demand for activated carbon. Activated carbon is well
renowned for its exceptional adsorption properties which find applications in
diversified industries as well as in other non-industrial establishments
across the globe. It is widely used as a specialty chemical for water
treatment and air purification purposes including applications in purifiers,
automobile, food, beverages, pharmaceutical, FMCG and numerous other
industries. Except purification, the product is immensely required for mining
of precious metals i.e. Gold. Moreover, there are a number of other potential
applications which enhances the significance of activated carbon as a
versatile industrial chemical.
According to “Global Activated Carbon Market Forecast &
Opportunities, 2017” the demand for activated carbon is expected to
grow at the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 13% for next
five years to make it a whooping US $ 3 Billion market by the year end 2017.
Due to increased worldwide concern on mounting environment pollution,
governments are recognizing the importance of products and systems which can
act as safeguards to counter pollution related adverse effects. Activated
carbon has been extremely successful as a remediation solution for air and
water purification through its excellent adsorbent properties which is
actively driving its sales in nearly all regions of the world. Asia Pacific
and North America are two largest markets that comprised nearly three quarter
of global sales volumes in 2011. United States is the largest global market
for activated carbon and related services whereas demand is growing
incessantly in developing countries especially in China, India and South Korea.
