Activated Carbon testing

ACTIVATED CARBON TESTING LAB

In addition to our water analysis service, we provide testing and consulting services related to water purification with activated carbon. We are a third-party quality control lab with capabilities for carbon characterization such as Iodine Number, Hardness, Moisture, Density and all the other AWWA and ASTM activated carbon standards. Moreover, EPS is proud to be the industry-leading performance-based testing provider for powdered and granular activated carbon products. We partner with water utilities and engineering firms to optimize the use and design of activated carbon systems for improved performance and reduced operating costs. If you need an unbiased performance-based test to determine the best carbon product for your application, call us today to learn more!

We work with companies across the country to provide water analysis, carbon testing, and more. Our staff is made up of industry leaders and qualified experts to ensure complete confidence in our results. Our experience and professionalism offer you the most cost-effective and fastest turnaround times in the industry. With roots in the water treatment industry, we have branched out to provide a range of services to benefit other industries across the United States.

In addition to water utilities, carbon vendors, and engineering firms, we provide testing services to hospitals, pharmaceutical, and food and beverage industries. Anyone needing high-quality water can count on the professionals at EPS for fast and accurate national lab testing services.

Performance-Based Testing & Carbon Characterization

In addition to comprehensive water analysis, EPS is an industry leader in activated carbon testing and optimization. We provide complete carbon characterization using approved AWWA and ASTM methods, including:

  • Iodine Number
  • Hardness
  • Moisture Content
  • Apparent Density
  • Ash, fines, particle size distribution, and more

EPS is also recognized as a national leader in performance-based testing for both powdered activated carbon (PAC) and granular activated carbon (GAC). Our testing evaluates real-world adsorption performance rather than relying solely on surrogate metrics—helping clients:

  • Identify the most effective carbon products
  • Optimize system design and treatment efficiency
  • Extend carbon lifespan and reduce operating costs

If your organization needs neutral, third-party performance testing to select the best carbon for your application, our experts are ready to assist.
