Application

  • Activated carbons are internally porous microcrystalline, non-graphitic forms of carbon. The activated carbons possess large surface area (~1000 m2/g) and pore volumes which make them useful for applications in energy storage devices, catalysis, and for removal of impurities from gases and liquids.
  • NORIT® A SUPRA EUR USP exhibits high adsorption capacity and is well suited for use as an adsorbent for the purification of pharmaceutical products. It also finds application as as antidote in case of poisoning. NORIT® A SUPRA EUR USP is a medicinal, steam activated carbon of 100% natural origin.
