Activated Carbon for Phenol Removal
Phenol is a common organic pollutant found in wastewater from industries such as petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, coking plants, resins, plastics, and pesticides. One of the most widely used technologies is activated carbon adsorption. With its high surface area, well‑developed microporous structure, and strong affinity for aromatic compounds, activated carbon is an ideal material for removing phenol from water.
