Activated Carbon Media is a highly porous adsorbent material made primarily from carbon-rich sources such as coconut shells, coal, wood, or peat, and is processed through physical or chemical activation to create an extensive internal surface area that captures contaminants, odors, and chemicals from gases or liquids. It plays a critical role in air and water purification, solvent recovery, and industrial gas processing. The supply chain begins with raw material sourcing (carbonaceous feedstocks), followed by carbonization and activation stages, where the material is heated under controlled conditions to develop micropores. After activation, the carbon is graded, crushed, and often impregnated with specific agents to enhance performance for targeted applications. The finished product is distributed to filter manufacturers, environmental engineering firms, and industrial end-users across sectors such as water treatment, food and beverage processing, pharmaceuticals, and petrochemicals. In 2024, global Activated Carbon Media output was about 1.65 million tons with a capacity near 1.95 million tons. Prices ranged from USD 1,850–4,900 per ton, and the market achieved an average gross margin of 33%.
