Product Overview
F-16 represents the enhanced tier of our phosphoric acid wood powder carbon series, delivering a methylene blue adsorption value exceeding 240 mg/g for improved color removal efficiency. Manufactured through extended phosphoric acid activation and controlled washing, this grade handles heavier decolorization loads while maintaining the fast filtration and low ash characteristics that make wood carbons popular in food and chemical processing.
The higher methylene blue capacity translates directly to improved throughput: processors can achieve equivalent color removal with shorter contact times, or achieve superior product quality at standard processing speeds.

Key Application Areas
- Food & Beverage Processing — Edible oil refining, sugar syrup decolorization, alcohol and spirits purification where enhanced color removal improves product appearance and stability.
- Chemical Processing — Intermediate and solvent purification, catalyst support preparation, and fine chemical treatment requiring higher adsorption capacity.
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing — API decolorization, excipient purification, and fermentation broth cleanup where batch consistency is critical.
- Sugar & Syrup Industries — Treats high-color cane and beet syrups, reducing carbon dosage compared to entry-level grades.
Key Advantages
- Enhanced Capacity for Heavy Loads: Methylene blue >240 mg/g delivers 15–20% higher color removal efficiency than F-14, reducing total carbon consumption per batch.
- Rapid Processing Kinetics: Developed mesopore structure ensures fast adsorption and easy separation, keeping production lines moving without extended settling times.
- Low Metals, High Purity: Wood-based precursor naturally contains fewer heavy metal contaminants than mineral-based carbons, supporting food and pharma compliance.
- Proven Batch Consistency: Tight manufacturing control ensures every lot meets the >240 mg/g specification, preventing process upsets from variable carbon quality.
