  • Gas masks-It is a device which consists of activated charcoal. This is used to adsorb poisonous gases. 

  • Humidity control-Silica gel and aluminium gel are used for this purpose. 

  • Removal of colouring matter from solutions-Animal charcoal is used for decolorising cane sugar. 

  • Heterogeneous catalysis 

  • Separation of inert gases by coconut charcoal 

  • Softening of hard water 

  • De-jionising of water 

  • Cleaning agents 

  • Froth floatation process 

  • Adsorption indicators
