PAC is a fine form of activated carbon with particle size of less than 0.18 mm (80 ASTM Mesh) according to ASTM definition or atleast 90% by weight of particles with size of less than 0.5 mm (35 ASTM Mesh) according to the EU Council.
Owing to their very small particle size they offer certain advantages over granular and pelletized forms, such as larger accessible porosity and faster mass transfer which accounts for high adsorption rates.
SHAKUN MINERALS PVT LTD provides PAC derived from 3 raw materials viz., wood, coal and coconut shell, each available in various mesh sizes, unwashed/washed, and standard as well as customizable properties. We have the capability to manufacture PAC through both steam activation and chemical activation routes. We also offer unwashed, water washed and acid washed grades with tailorable adsorption properties.
