NORIT® purifies. Our activated carbon scientists and engineers transform one of the earth’s most natural elements – carbon – into extremely porous granules and powders that are used to purify beverages, biogas, chemicals, foods, pharmaceutical ingredients, water, and countless other products necessary for life.
