Drinking Water Treatment Using Activated Carbon
Clean drinking water is essential for maintaining public health, as poor-quality drinking water can lead to severe illnesses. To address this risk, water treatment facilities worldwide rely on chemical, separation and filtration processes to purify drinking water. Among the most common processes is the use of activated carbon (AC), which plays a crucial role in removing organic contaminants, trace chemicals, chlorine, and odour-causing substances from water.
Bygen, is a global leader in the production of high-quality activated carbon for drinking water treatment, combining proprietary technologies with a strong commitment to sustainability. Our advanced processes ensure the highest levels of efficiency, safety, and environmental responsibility during production.
How Activated Carbon Purifies Drinking Water
Activated carbon is renowned for its high surface area, making it highly effective at adsorbing impurities from water. During the “activation” process the carbon's surface area increases reactively, creating and expanding millions of microscopic pores. These pores attract and trap organic compounds, chemicals, and odours, removing them from the solution and purifying water as it passes through.

Sustainability
Manufactured using eco-friendly processes, Bygen’s activated carbon is produced with minimal environmental impact. We prioritise sustainable practices in every step of production, from sourcing raw materials to reducing carbon emissions.
Types of Activated Carbon
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
GAC consists of larger carbon granules, making it ideal for continuous flow applications where extended contact time between water and carbon enhances contaminant removal.
Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC)
PAC is composed of finer particles that offer rapid adsorption of contaminants. Its versatility makes it suitable for both short-term, intermediate and large-scale municipal water treatment applications, where precise dosing and fast adsorption are required.
