Water and wastewater treatment
Clean water is one of India’s biggest challenges. Activated carbon removes chlorine, odor, pesticides and organic contaminants, and protects RO membranes downstream.
- Municipal water treatment plants
- Groundwater purification
- Industrial wastewater and effluent treatment plants
- Drinking water filtration
- Reverse osmosis pre-treatment
- Removal of chlorine, odor, pesticides and organics
Typical products: GAC, PAC, coconut shell and coal-based carbon
Air pollution control
Industrial emissions and urban air quality are major concerns across India. Activated carbon adsorbs harmful pollutants and helps plants meet emission norms.
- VOC removal
- Industrial exhaust treatment
- Air filtration systems
- Odor control
- Gas purification
- Emission compliance systems
Typical products: Pelletized and impregnated carbon, FM AURA, FM CATALO
Pharmaceuticals
India is one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical manufacturing hubs. Activated carbon is essential for purity and quality in API and formulation plants.
- Purification of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs)
- Removal of impurities
- Decolorization
- Solvent recovery
- Pharmaceutical water systems
Typical products: PAC and wood-based carbon
Food and beverage
India’s growing food and beverage sector relies on activated carbon for color, taste and purity.
- Sugar refining
- Edible oil purification
- Beverage filtration
- Color removal
- Taste and odor improvement
Typical products: PAC, wood-based carbon, FM CLARO, FM OLEO
Chemicals and petrochemicals
Activated carbon supports purification, separation and environmental management in chemical plants.
- Chemical purification
- Catalyst support
- Solvent recovery
- Industrial filtration
- Waste reduction
Typical products: GAC, PAC and pelletized carbon
Mining and gold recovery
Hard, high-activity carbon improves gold recovery and reduces carbon losses in CIL and CIP circuits.
- Carbon-in-Leach (CIL)
- Carbon-in-Pulp (CIP)
- Precious metal recovery
- Mineral processing
Typical products: Gold recovery carbon
Power generation
Power plants use activated carbon in water treatment and to help meet environmental requirements.
- Boiler and process water treatment
- Emission control
- Mercury removal
- Environmental compliance
Typical products: GAC and impregnated carbon, FM THIOVA
Environmental remediation
Activated carbon helps industry clean up contamination and meet sustainability regulations.
- Groundwater remediation
- Soil and sediment treatment
- PFAS and persistent organic pollutants
- Spill and emergency response
Typical products: GAC, PAC, FM TERRA, FM FLURO
Oil and gas
Activated carbon supports purification, filtration and hydrocarbon processing.
- Removal of H₂S and mercaptans
- Mercury removal
- Process stream purification
- Produced water treatment
Typical products: Impregnated carbon, FM THIOVA
