Activated Carbon Market Overview
Activated carbon, often referred to as activated charcoal, is a form of graphite used in pencil Activated carbon, also known as activated charcoal, is a highly porous form of carbon with an exceptionally large surface area, often exceeding 1000 square meters per gram. Produced from carbon-rich materials like coal, coconut shells, and wood through carbonization and activation processes, it is renowned for its strong adsorption capabilities. This makes it invaluable in various applications, including water and air purification, medical treatments for poisonings, and industrial processes for gas and chemical purification. Its versatility and efficiency in capturing a broad spectrum of contaminants underscore its widespread use and significance in enhancing environmental and public health.
Activated Carbon Market Dynamics
The activated carbon market is driven by several key factors. The increasing demand for clean water is a primary driver, as activated carbon is essential in water treatment processes to remove impurities and contaminants. Stricter environmental regulations globally are pushing industries to adopt more effective pollution control measures, boosting the use of activated carbon in air and water purification. The rise in industrial activities, particularly in developing countries, has led to greater demand for activated carbon in various applications such as chemical purification and solvent recovery. Additionally, the growing awareness about health and wellness is increasing the use of activated carbon in medical treatments and air filtration systems to ensure safer and healthier environments.
There are significant opportunities in the activated carbon market due to advancements in technology and expanding applications. Innovations in production methods are leading to more efficient and cost-effective activated carbon products, enhancing their performance and appeal. The rising popularity of activated carbon in emerging applications, such as energy storage in supercapacitors and soil remediation, presents new growth avenues. Furthermore, the expanding pharmaceutical and food and beverage industries are creating additional demand for activated carbon due to its purification and decolorization properties. The increasing focus on sustainable and eco-friendly products is also likely to drive the development and adoption of activated carbon derived from renewable sources.

In Asia Pacific, the Activated Carbon Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.9 percent over the forecast period
In the Asia Pacific region, coconut shells are becoming an increasingly vital raw material for activated carbon producers. Natural disasters significantly impact the activated carbon industry’s value chain, particularly affecting raw material availability. Consequently, prices for raw materials, especially coconut shell charcoal, have risen. Additionally, the cost of coal-based activated carbon has increased due to escalating energy demands, particularly in China, where the need for coal in industries such as power, cement, and steel continues to grow.
For instance, Jacobi Group has raised the price of all coconut-based activated carbons by 10 percent due to substantial increases in raw material costs, effective for shipments made on or after April 1, 2021. Similarly, beginning on or after October 1, 2020, or as contracts allow, Cabot Norit Activated Carbon increased global prices for all activated carbon products, with hikes ranging from 3 percent to 8 Percent, depending on the product and location. As a result, suitable coal grades for activated carbon production are becoming scarce. Coal remains the most common raw material for activated carbon manufacturing in the Asia Pacific, particularly in India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and the Philippines. However, the scarcity of raw materials is affecting the operational efficiency of activated carbon producers, leading to a 50-60 percent drop in production capacity and an increase in activated carbon prices.
Activated Carbon Market Segmentation
Based on the Type, the powdered activated carbon (PAC) segment to dominate the Activated Carbon Market over the forecast period
Based on type, in 2023, the powdered activated carbon (PAC) segment dominated the market, holding the largest share of the overall market in terms of revenue. PAC, with its smaller particle size compared to granular activated carbon, boasts a higher surface-to-volume ratio. This makes it ideal for direct introduction into process units such as quick mix basins, clarifiers, and gravity filters. Traditionally, activated carbon is manufactured as powders or small granules less than 1.0 mm in diameter, typically ranging from 0.15 mm to 0.25 mm. The effectiveness of PAC in adsorbing tastes and odors depends on factors such as proper mixing, contact time, dosage, and the source and severity of the odor or taste issue. PAC is widely used in various applications, including wastewater treatment.
