Activated carbon is a very useful adsorbent. Due to their high surface area, pore structure, and high degree of surface reactivity, activated carbon can be used to purify, dechlorinate, deodorize, and decolorize both liquid and vapor applications. Moreover, activated carbons are economical adsorbents for many industries, such as water purification, food-grade products, cosmetology, automotive applications, industrial gas purification, petroleum, and precious metal recovery, mainly for gold. The base materials for activated carbons are coconut shells, coal, or wood.

It is generally produced from carbonaceous source materials such as bamboo, coconut husk, willow peat, wood, coir, lignite, coal, and petroleum pitch.
