Profile: Norit (UK) Ltd. specializes in the production of activated carbon on an industrial scale. We focus on offering purification solutions based on activated carbon technology. In steam activation, as well as chemical activation, we use a wide spectrum of raw materials such as peat, wood, lignite, coal, and olive pits to produce a vast array of activated carbon types. By controlling variations in physical shape, particle size, degree of activation, purity, and through specific after-treatments such as impregnation, we can offer a carbon type for every application. Activated carbon represents a number of different functionalities. These include adsorption, reduction, catalysis, carrier of biomass, and carrier of chemicals.
