Process-related substances from metalworking Metal & electroplating technology

In metalworking and especially in electroplating processes, process media are produced that can be contaminated by dissolved substances, additives and residues. Depending on the process, chemicals used and process control, the requirements for treatment can differ significantly.

Consistent quality of the media used is crucial for stable processes and high-quality surfaces. Contamination can have a direct impact on coating results and influence downstream work steps.

Activated carbon is used specifically in metal and electroplating technology to remove organic compounds and interfering substances from process solutions. It can therefore help to maintain the quality of electroplating baths and ensure reproducible results in surface treatment.
