Powdered Activated Carbon for Wastewater Treatment: Why Wood-Based Carbon Is a Top Choice

Wood-based powdered activated carbon (PAC) is an effective, eco-friendly solution for wastewater treatment in industries such as textiles, chemicals, and food processing. Compared to coal-based PAC, wood-based carbon offers faster adsorption, lower ash content, and greater compatibility with dye and COD removal applications. This article explores the benefits, usage methods, and typical applications of wood-based PAC for industrial effluent treatment.
