An overview of the application for activated carbon purification technology in the purification of different water types - drinking, process and waste.

Water Treatment with Activated Carbon

Aquatech Amsterdam 2027

Leading international supplier of purification solutions based on activated carbon filtration technology. We supply a broad range of activated carbon media, supplied under our FiltraCarb and Oxpure brands. Various sizes of mobile carbon filters offer a convenient 'plug & play' solution, for both liquid phase (AquaSorber) and gas phase (VOCSorber) applications. We offer spent carbon reactivation via our UK partners CPL Activated Carbons. Operations in NL, FR, UK, ES and USA. REACH registered.

Puragen Activated Carbons

CPL Puragen receives Green Apple Award for Service Industries: Pollution & Emission Reduction.

The prize-winning entry described how our best-in-class granular activated carbons (GAC) remove PFAS molecules from drinking water and wastewater streams, then the spent activated carbon can be recycled via advanced thermal reactivation at our UK facility. Of all of the technologies available for PFAS abatement, only GAC can be recycled in this way, making it a truly sustainable solution. We have shown, via external testing, that our gas and liquid phase emissions from our thermal reactivation are essentially free from PFAS compounds, meaning that the PFAS have been destroyed by our downstream thermal oxidisers and scrubbers, and therefore permanently removed from the environment.  PFAS molecules are no longer 'forever' chemicals when they come face-to-face with CPL/Puragen REACT-Sys technology!

Range of granular activated carbons, optimised for the abatment of PFAS group 'forever chemicals. Proven to be the most efficient products on the market for this important application. Spent carbons can be safely and economically reactivated at CPL Activated Carbons in the UK.

FiltraCarb CH Range

High flow, up to 100m3/h, mobile activated carbon filter for drinking water or industrial water treatment. Supplied on a 'plug & play' rental basis, meaning no on-site carbon handling and no CAPEX. Once the filter is spent, it is simply replaced with a fresh unit and the spent material is returned to the UK for recycling via thermal reactivation. Filters are delivered on dedicated tipping trailers by expert haulage contractors.

Puragen's UK-based sister company, CPL Activated Carbons, has an award-winning, state-of-the-art spent carbon reactivation facility, where it has separate units for handling carbons from potable/drinking water ('green' kiln) and industrial/environmental applications ('amber' kiln). Site is ISO9001, 14001 and 45001 accredited. Site was awarded Green Apple environment award in 2023.

Our range of FiltraCarb® CH carbons offers best-in-class performance for the removal of medium/long chain PFAS molecules.  When combined with our thermal reactivation process, we offer a circular solution that removes and destroys these ‘forever’ chemicals.  Shorter-chain PFAS represent a particular problem, being less readily adsorbed by regular GAC grades. We have developed an innovative and unique process for modifying the surface chemistry of the GAC to allow removal of short-chain PFAS too.

Modified GAC for Optimised PFAS Abatement

Our unique surface-modified granular activated carbon products have been designed to remove 'difficult' short-chain PFAS forever chemicals from water.
