Product Specification

Impregnated Extruded Activated Carbon for Mercury Vapor Adsorption

Product Introduction

Impregnated Extruded Activated Carbon for Mercury Vapor Adsorption is a high-performance activated carbon specifically formulated for the capture of elemental mercury (Hg⁰), oxidized mercury compounds, and organic mercury vapors.
It is widely used in industrial off-gas treatment, flue gas purification, natural gas processing, waste incineration, chlorine-alkali plants, and mercury-containing exhaust control systems.

Through precise impregnation with specialized catalytic agents, this activated carbon enables the oxidation, adsorption, and stabilization of mercury vapor, ensuring safe long-term immobilization.
Its cylindrical pellet structure provides low pressure drop, high hardness, and excellent durability, making it suitable for continuous operation under high-temperature or variable-moisture conditions.

Note: Core property ranges are stable across common impregnation systems (e.g., sulfur-based, halogen-based, and catalytic systems), ensuring consistent performance in mercury removal applications.

Features

• High Mercury Capture Efficiency: Effectively removes Hg⁰ and Hg²⁺ via catalytic oxidation and strong chemisorption.

• Long-Term Stability: Chemisorbed mercury remains immobilized, preventing re-emission even under temperature fluctuations.

• High Surface Area & Strong Structure: Cylindrical pellets offer excellent adsorption kinetics, low attrition, and stable airflow.

• Moisture-Resistant Performance: Maintains activity under varying humidity typical of industrial exhaust environments.

• Safe & Reliable: Designed to prevent secondary pollution and compatible with continuous operation in industrial purification systems.

Applications

• Flue Gas Mercury Control: Coal-fired power plants, industrial boilers, waste incinerators.

• Chemical & Chlor-Alkali Industry: Removal of mercury from electrolytic cells and process off-gas streams.

• Natural Gas Processing: Capture of mercury to protect downstream aluminum heat exchangers and catalysts.

• Metal Processing & Gold Smelting: Mercury vapor removal from extraction, refining, and thermal processes.

• Environmental Safety Systems: Used in exhaust purification units for laboratories and mercury storage facilities.
