Product Overview
Achieve the highest standards of purity and safety with our Pharmaceutical Grade Coconut Shell Activated Carbon. Engineered for critical applications, this carbon undergoes rigorous acid washing and steam activation to ensure ultra-low impurities and a highly specific pore structure.
It is fully compliant with USP (United States Pharmacopeia) and EP (European Pharmacopeia) standards, making it the ideal choice for the purification of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), the removal of pyrogens in injectables, and the decolorization of fine chemicals. Our carbon guarantees the removal of trace contaminants without compromising the efficacy of the active compounds.
Key Advantages
- Ultra-Low Impurities: Specially treated to minimize ash, acid-soluble substances, and heavy metals (Arsenic ≤3ppm, Lead ≤10ppm), preventing secondary contamination in sensitive drug formulations.
- Targeted Adsorption: The unique microporous structure is optimized to adsorb large organic molecules, color bodies, and residual solvents while minimizing the loss of active ingredients.
- Pyrogen Removal: Highly effective in removing endotoxins and pyrogens from water and solutions intended for parenteral (injectable) use.
- GMP Compliant Manufacturing: Produced under strict quality control to meet Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) guidelines, ensuring batch-to-batch consistency.

Applications
- Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) Purification:
Used extensively in the synthesis of antibiotics, vitamins, and amino acids to decolorize solutions and remove organic impurities, ensuring high-purity final crystals. - Parenteral & Injectable Solutions:
Critical for the removal of pyrogens (endotoxins) and particulate matter from water for injection (WFI) and intravenous solutions, ensuring patient safety. - Vaccine & Biologicals Processing:
Acts as a clarifying agent to remove residual media components and by-products from fermentation processes without denaturing sensitive biological proteins. - Pharmaceutical Excipients:
Purifies gelatin, glycerin, and sorbitol by removing color and odor, meeting the strict aesthetic and safety requirements of the pharmaceutical industry. - Solvent Recovery:
Recovers high-value organic solvents used in drug manufacturing, ensuring environmental compliance and cost reduction.
Packaging & Storage
- Packaging: Double-lined PE bags (inner) and fiber drums or 25kg bags (outer) to maintain sterility and prevent contamination.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep away from strong oxidants and volatile chemicals.
