ACC Unveils Next-Generation Spherical Activated Carbon for High-Purity Filtration, Energy Storage, and Medical Applications

XIAMEN, China - ACC (Xiamen All Carbon Corporation), a leading global supplier of activated carbon solutions, today announced the expanded commercial availability of its advanced spherical activated carbon (SAC) product line, targeting high-value applications in semiconductor manufacturing, ultrapure water systems, supercapacitors, and hemoperfusion devices. The launch comes as the global spherical activated carbon market is projected to grow from USD 1.39 billion in 2025 to USD 2.13 billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 6.20%, driven by increasing demand for high-efficiency adsorption materials across critical industries.

Spherical activated carbon represents a significant advancement over conventional granular or powdered activated carbons. Its uniform spherical geometry and highly ordered pore distribution deliver superior flow dynamics, minimal pressure drop, and exceptionally low dust generation-key advantages for applications where purity, consistency, and operational efficiency are paramount.

Two Product Families, Multiple Performance Tiers

ACC's spherical activated carbon portfolio comprises two distinct product families, each engineered for specific application requirements.

ACarbon® SP Series (Resin-Based Spherical Activated Carbon)
Manufactured from specialty resin using world-leading spherical activation technology, the SP series offers ultra-high purity with ash content below 0.5%. The raw material contains only carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen-zero heavy metals or toxic elements. Available in three performance grades:

Grade Specific Surface Area (min.) Iodine Number (min.) Bulk Density Hardness (min.)
SP-1000 1,000 m2/g 1,000 mg/g 450-620 kg/m3 99%
SP-1300 1,300 m2/g 1,300 mg/g 450-620 kg/m3 99%
SP-1500 1,500 m2/g 1,500 mg/g 450-620 kg/m3 99%
Particle sizes range from 0.1 mm to 0.9 mm, with customizable pore volume and particle size distribution to control flow resistance. The directional arrangement of carbon molecules gives the SP series compressive strength significantly higher than comparable products at the same bulk density.

ACarbon® SC Series (Coconut Shell-Based Spherical Activated Carbon)
The SC series is produced from high-quality coconut shells, offering a cost-effective alternative to resin-based or asphalt-based spherical activated carbons with comparable performance.

The SC series features a well-developed porous structure, high strength and wear resistance, good chemical stability, excellent fluidity, and renewability.

Target Applications Across Critical Industries

ACC spherical activated carbon is engineered for high-value applications where conventional activated carbon falls short.

Market Opportunity and Supply Advantage

The global spherical activated carbon market remains concentrated among fewer than twenty leading producers, with top-tier manufacturers commanding over 70% of global output. Production capacity expansions are constrained by specialized reactor equipment and stringent regulatory requirements for medical and pharmaceutical grades, creating supply bottlenecks and pricing pressure for end users.

ACC addresses this market gap through vertically integrated production capabilities, offering both resin-based and coconut shell-based spherical activated carbon at multiple performance tiers. The company's SP series provides ultra-high purity grades for medical, semiconductor, and ultrapure water applications, while the SC series delivers cost-effective solutions for water treatment, catalyst support, and industrial solvent recovery.
