What Does GAC Stand For?
GAC stands for Granular Activated Carbon
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is a highly porous material derived from carbon-rich substances, such as wood, coal, or coconut shells. It is widely used in filtration processes due to its exceptional adsorption properties, allowing it to effectively remove contaminants, impurities, and odors from air and water. GAC is commonly employed in water treatment facilities, air purification systems, and industrial applications, making it a critical component in environmental remediation and pollution control. Its adaptability and efficiency make it a preferred choice for ensuring cleaner and safer environments.
