“Activated Carbon” is a generic term for a family of highly porous carbonaceous materials that cannot be defined by a structural formula, or by chemical analysis. In other words, a piece of carbon with millions of tiny interlocking holes (called pores) is called activated carbon. Under a microscope, activated carbon looks like a sponge. The […]

This week we have spent some time updating the CFD analysis for some of our products, focusing on our Incinerators and Cremators. CFD is short for Computational Fluid Dynamics, and is a mathematical flow modelling tool used by engineers to simulate fluid flow through a pre-defined space. It allows the engineer to identify undesired dead […]
