A colloid mill is useful in activated carbon production for reducing carbon particle size and creating stable, well-dispersed slurries or suspensions used in filtration media, water treatment formulations or specialty coatings. The high shear breaks apart clumped carbon particles that tend to agglomerate, improving flow properties and ensuring more uniform performance when the carbon is applied in its intended use.
