Sewage and Wastewater
Treatment
Effective wastewater and sewage treatment is critical for protecting ecosystems, preventing contamination, and enabling water reuse across municipal and industrial systems. Hyera’s American Engineered Carbon (AEC) delivers a next-generation approach to wastewater purification - combining sustainability with proven performance.
Our activated carbon is specifically engineered to remove a wide spectrum of contaminants including organic pollutants, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, and odor-causing compounds. Produced from renewable raw materials, AEC delivers the adsorption power wastewater operators demand, with the carbon footprint today’s regulators expect.
How Activated Carbon Works in Wastewater Treatment
Hyera's activated carbon is produced from sustainable materials such as nut shells (including almonds, walnuts and
hazelnuts) and sustainable forestry wood sources. During the “activation” process the carbon's surface area increases
reactively, creating and expanding millions of microscopic pores, capable of efficiently adsorbing impurities from sewage
and wastewater. This includes the removal of organic pollutants, pharmaceutical residues, heavy metals, and chemical
contaminants.
Hyera's Advantages
At Hyera, we produce a range of activated carbons that are both effective and environmentally responsible.
Our products are tailored to meet the unique needs of municipal, industrial, and commercial wastewater treatment applications, delivering optimal performance while promoting sustainability.
Key Benefits include:
Highly Effective
Our activated carbon products are designed to efficiently remove harmful contaminants, including organic pollutants, chemical residues, heavy metals, and odor-causing compounds. This ensures treated wastewater is safer for reuse or discharge, supporting environmental and regulatory compliance.
Quality Assurance
Hyera is committed to delivering superior quality and consistency. Our in-house quality assurance processes follow ASTM standards, with periodic sample results verified by independent third-party laboratories to ensure reliability.
Sustainability
Manufactured using eco-friendly processes, Hyera’s activated carbon is produced with minimal environmental impact than traditional process. We prioritize sustainable practices in every step of production, from sourcing raw materials to reducing carbon emissions.
Types of Activated Carbon
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
GAC consists of larger carbon granules, making it ideal for continuous flow applications such as fixed-bed reactors in wastewater treatment systems. Its extended contact time with wastewater ensures efficient removal of larger organic molecules, chemical contaminants, and odor-causing compounds.
Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC)
PAC is composed of finer particles that offer rapid adsorption of contaminants. Its versatility makes it suitable for short-term, intermediate and large-scale municipal and industrial wastewater treatment applications, where precise dosing and fast adsorption are required.
