Eco-Friendly Activated Carbon Solutions
Hyera is proud to be among the leading activated carbon producers and activated carbon suppliers in the U.S., delivering sustainable solutions for industrial and environmental purification.
Activated carbon is produced in various forms, including powders and solid blocks, each suited to different purification systems. Its extreme porosity provides vast internal surface area, allowing it to adsorb a wide range of impurities - from organic compounds and chemicals to chlorine and odor-causing molecules. Contaminants are trapped within microscopic pores, effectively removing pollutants from liquids and gases.
These properties make activated carbon essential for applications such as water treatment, air purification, and industrial filtration across a variety of sectors.
Activated Carbon
A Critical Organic Adsorbing Agent
Activated carbon is one of the most effective and cost-efficient materials for adsorbing organic contaminants, making it a preferred solution across a wide range of industries. Renowned for its adaptability, activated carbon is used to purify liquids and gases and is integral to soil remediation. From removing organic compounds in drinking water to decolorizing fruit juices and sugar solutions, activated carbon is an essential additive in modern purification processes.
Activated carbon is traditionally derived from carbon-rich materials such as coal, wood, or coconut shells. While these inputs are functional, they raise concerns from a sustainability and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) perspective. Coal, in particular, is inherently nonrenewable, and the coconut shell supply chain can involve complex ethical and environmental issues, a concern for many buyers seeking coconut shell activated carbon suppliers.
Types of Activated Carbon
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
Produced from renewable, U.S.-sourced biomass, our granular activated carbon is engineered for applications where managing pressure drop is critical. Offering a high surface area and adaptable particle size distribution, Hyera’s GAC delivers exceptional performance across a wide range of standard filtration systems that rely on activated carbon.
Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC)
Manufactured from natural materials such as wood and nut shells, Hyera’s powdered activated carbon offers a cost-effective and easy-to-apply solution. With fast adsorption kinetics, it is especially effective in liquid-phase applications, including water treatment and a range of industrial purification processes.
Key Applications
Activated carbon, in all forms, has a wide range of uses. At Hyera, we take pride in our experience and expertise supporting clients across the following applications:
As trusted activated carbon suppliers, we work closely with utilities, consultants, and manufacturers to develop the right solution for each system and challenge.
A Sustainable Alternative to Coconut Shell Activated Carbon
At Hyera, we manufacture our high-performance activated carbon products from renewable biomass such as almond, walnut, and hazelnut shells, as well as sustainably sourced forestry residues. These feedstocks are processed at elevated temperatures in a highly controlled environment that requires significantly less energy and produces fewer emissions than legacy carbon manufacturing techniques.
This makes us one of the few activated carbon producers offering a truly sustainable alternative to traditional coconut shell activated carbon suppliers and coal-based methods.
Verified Quality and Performance
Hyera’s sustainable activated carbon solutions are engineered to the highest quality benchmarks. Our products are verified through both internal and independent third-party testing, with quality parameters including ash content, surface area (BET/iodine number), pore size distribution, and ash speciation, ensuring precision, consistency, and top-tier performance for our customers.
