Carbon Production
Our carbon plant in Wickliffe, Kentucky, U.S. produces Nuchar® granular, powdered and activated carbons made from sawdust – previously thought of as a waste product of the forest industry. Wood is a superior carbon source because of its elemental structure, purity and renewable nature.
Global applications for our activated carbons include automotive emissions control, gas and vapor adsorption, corrosive gas protection, solvent recovery, air pollution control, chemical and pharmaceutical processing, sugar and syrups decolorization, wastewater purification and potable water treatment.
Responsible Care
The Wickliffe plant places great emphasis on environmental, safety health and Responsible Care (RC) issues. The Wickliffe facility has maintained RC 14001 certification since 2004.
The Wickliffe facility has a safety committee whose focus is to identify and resolve safety issues. The group has demonstrated its empowerment to make many changes, helping to prevent injuries and accidents.
