ACC Introduces Renewable Plant-Based Activated Carbon for Solvent Recovery

PARIS - July 1, 2026 - PRLog -- XIAMEN, China – ACC (Xiamen All Carbon Corporation), a global supplier of activated carbon solutions, today announced its plant-based extruded activated carbon series for solvent recovery applications, offering a renewable alternative to traditional coal-based products.

The global solvent recovery market is projected to grow significantly, driven by tightening VOC emission regulations and increasing industrial focus on resource recycling.

Product Portfolio

ACC's solvent recovery carbon includes two series:

• WEC Series (Wood-based): Non-bonded forming, high hardness, well-developed pore structure, CTC adsorption capacity up to 120, low flow resistance. Suitable for in-situ regeneration with superheated steam or hot inert gas.
• BP Series (Bamboo-based): Up to 90% microporous structure, large BET specific surface area, low ash content, small volume usage per unit.

Key Advantages

• High adsorption and desorption efficiency – significantly improves solvent recovery rate
• High hardness and low ash content – reasonable pore size distribution
• Long service life – repeated adsorption/desorption cycles
• High cost-performance ratio – reduced downtime
• High ignition point – safe operation

Target Solvents

Effective for ethers, ketones, alcohols, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, trichloromethane, trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene, carbon disulfide, benzene, toluene, formyl, gasoline, fluorinated hydrocarbons, and more.
