Applications in the Exhaust Gas Treatment Industry

Adsorption of Harmful Gases

Application: Activated carbon is widely used to adsorb harmful gases from exhaust emissions, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), sulfur dioxide (SO₂), and nitrogen oxides (NOx).

Characteristics: Its high surface area and porous structure allow it to effectively capture a variety of gases, improving air quality and reducing environmental impact.

Catalytic Converter Support

Application: Activated carbon can be used as a support material in catalytic converters to enhance the performance of catalysts that convert harmful gases into less toxic substances.

Characteristics: The material’s stability and high adsorption capacity support efficient catalytic reactions, reducing emissions from vehicles and industrial sources.

Particulate Matter Filtration

Application: Diatomaceous earth serves as a filtration medium to capture particulate matter in exhaust gas treatment systems, particularly in diesel engines.

Characteristics: Its fine, porous structure allows for effective trapping of soot and other particulate emissions while maintaining optimal flow rates.

Moisture Control in Exhaust Systems

Application: Diatomaceous earth can help control moisture levels in exhaust gas treatment systems, preventing corrosion and enhancing the longevity of equipment.

Characteristics: Its moisture-absorbing properties help mitigate the risk of damage from condensation in exhaust systems.

Odor Neutralization

Application: Activated carbon is used to neutralize odors in exhaust gases from industrial processes, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.

Characteristics: Its ability to adsorb odorous compounds enhances the overall quality of exhaust emissions before they are released into the atmosphere.

Waste Gas Treatment in Industries

Application: Both activated carbon and diatomaceous earth are utilized in waste gas treatment systems in various industries, including petrochemical and power generation.

Characteristics: Their combined properties enable effective removal of contaminants, contributing to cleaner exhaust emissions.
