Scottish physicist James Dewar extensively studied the gas absorption capacity of activated carbon. 1 gram of activated carbon can easily adsorb moisture levels the size of 8 tennis courts. This study investigated simultaneous removal of lead and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid from synthetic wastewater samples using granular activated carbon adsorption. Activated charcoal powder can adsorb thousands of times its own weight in gases, heavy metals, poisons, and other chemicals; thus it renders them ineffective and harmless. Kris_Lew The carbon is treated with oxygen to make it porous so that it can absorb and adsorb hundreds of times it's own weight.

In the process of painting vehicles, upwards of 6 kg of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can be used as solvents for the paint. Activated carbon as an adsorbent is widely used because of its high adsorption abilities for a large number of chemicals [16-18]. Adsorption has proven, time and time again, to be the most effective and economical process for removing those invisible nuisances from the air you breathe. Activated carbon is a natural desiccant that has excellent adsorption capabilities. It is even much more effective that silica gel!

The method known as dual phase extraction makes use of carbon adsorption process by way of granular activated carbon filters and portable water filtration units.
