Comprehensive Activated Carbon Recycling Solutions

Rubo offers a complete recycling service for all types of activated carbon waste. Our UK-based network of hazardous waste treatment facilities uses the latest recycling and disposal techniques, ensuring compliance with UK environmental regulations. The recycling process often involves the regeneration of activated carbon through thermal reactivation, which restores the carbon's adsorption capacity, allowing it to be reused.

We can recycle the following types of activated carbon:

  • Lignite-Based Activated Carbon

  • Bituminous-Based Activated Carbon

  • Powdered Activated Carbon

  • Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)

  • Activated Carbon Pellets

Whether your waste activated carbon comes from water treatment, wastewater treatment, pollution control, or food and beverage processing, Rubo has the solution for your specific recycling needs.
