WELL INTERNATIONAL | TAMILNADU | INDIA | https://wellinternational.in Adsorption of Heavy Metals Activated carbon can effectively remove heavy metals like lead, mercury, cadmium, and copper from drinking water. These toxic metals can have severe health implications, and the adsorption process helps protect consumers from potential harm. Activated Carbon Regeneration As activated carbon adsorbs contaminants, its pores gradually become filled, reducing its efficiency. However, the activated carbon can be regenerated through a process called thermal reactivation or chemical reactivation, restoring its adsorption capacity and extending its useful life.
