World Activated Carbon NEW Forecasts for 2016 & 2021 in 18 countries

This study examines worldwide demand for virgin activated carbon (also called activated charcoal), including powdered activated carbon (PAC), granular activated carbon (GAC), and a variety of specialty activated carbon products (pelletized, extruded, etc.). Production, demand, and capacity figures presented here represent virgin material, although a separate discussion of regenerated activated carbon is also included. The term “regeneration” is used interchangeably with the term “desorption,” meaning removal of contaminants from activated carbon, while “reactivation” is used when discussing the destruction of contaminants and the recovery of adsorption capacity.

Demand is presented by product type, application, geographic sector, and market. Historical data are provided for 2001, 2006, and 2011, with forecasts for the years 2016 and 2021. The term “demand” actually refers to “apparent consumption,” and is defined as production (also referred to variously as “shipments,” “output” or “supply”) from a country’s indigenous manufacturing facilities plus imports, minus exports. It is used interchangeably with the terms “market,” “sales,” and “consumption.” Data are presented in thousands of metric tons and millions of US dollars.
