Different types of raw materials are employed in the manufacture of activated carbon.Major raw materials are coal, coconut shell, and wood.
Activated carbon can be manufactured by using less conventional raw materials such as peat, olive stones, fruit pits, petroleum coke, pitch, synthetic polymers, waste cellulose materials, and scrap tires.It can be manufactured by employing two processes: steam activation at high temperatures and chemical activation by using a strong dehydrating agent.
Of these, steam activation is the commonly used process.
Based on form, the global activated carbon market has been segmented into granular, powdered, extruded, and others (including honeycombs and activated carbon fibers).Granular is expected to be the dominant segment during the forecast period.
However, the powdered segment is anticipated to expand significantly during the forecast period.In terms of raw material, the global activated carbon market has been divided into coal-based, wood-based, coconut shell-based, and others (including nutshell and olive stones).
Coal-based was the major segment of the activated carbon market in 2017.However, the coconut shell-based segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period.
Easy availability and eco-friendly nature are the major factors estimated to drive the coconut shell-based segment. Based on application, the activated carbon market has been segregated into water & wastewater treatment, gas & air treatment, food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals, mining, automotive, and others (including personal care, gold metal catalyst). Water & wastewater treatment and gas & air treatment were the dominant segments of the global activated carbon market in 2017.
Based on region, the global activated carbon market has been split into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and Latin America.Asia Pacific is estimated to lead the global activated carbon market in the next few years.
