Activated Carbon and Carbon Regeneration

Chavond-Barry Engineering Corp. is recognized by industry as a leading national authority on the production of both activated carbon and its regeneration. CBE's clients include product producers as well as equipment manufacturers. 

Activated Carbon Production / Regeneration
CBE performs the process engineering and design calculations necessary for building an activated carbon manufacture / regeneration furnace.

Our proprietary software package is used to perform complex mass and energy balance calculations (both for the overall furnace and the individual hearths) to accurately predict furnace performance during the design phase and before construction begins. Pilot testing is used to calibrate and fine-tune the model used during the design calculations. Our services additionally extend to start up, troubleshooting, and normal operation.

CBE is also available to perform the design and economics of an entire production plant for the production of specialized products. Services include, but are not limited to, process and engineering drawings from concept to detailed design, detailed design specifications, and budgetary estimates.

Steam Activation
One versatile mode of activated carbon production/regeneration is through steam activation in a multiple hearth furnace (MHF).  The multiple hearth furnace is unique in that the solids pass though a series of compartmentalized chambers (hearths), wherein the reaction environment can be accurately controlled and may even be drastically different from one hearth to the next; a variety of furnace controls such as, air injectors, steam injectors and burners, are used to establish the local reaction environment (hearth temperature and gas composition).

Carbon Regeneration

Activated carbon is a form of carbon that has been processed to make it extremely porous and thus to have a very large surface area available for adsorption and/or chemical reactions. 

Depending upon the raw material and activation technique used in their production, a wide variety of activated carbon products are available for an even wider range of applications.


Common applications include spill clean up, drinking water filtration, mercury scrubbing and air purification/pollution control techniques.
