Arq Inc's Business Segments

Arq, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, is an environmental technology company specializing in the manufacture and sale of consumable air, water, and soil treatment solutions primarily based on activated carbon (AC). The company produces various forms of AC, including powdered activated carbon (PAC), granular activated carbon (GAC), and colloidal carbon product (CCP), using carbonaceous raw materials primarily sourced from its Five Forks Mine. Arq’s products are designed to capture and remove impurities, contaminants, and pollutants such as mercury and PFAS. These products serve markets including coal-fired power generation, industrial applications, water treatment, and soil remediation, collectively referred to as the advanced purification technologies (APT) market. Arq’s AC products are used to purify contaminated liquid, soil, and gas streams from industrial sources, including wastewater treatment plants and coal-fired power plants. The company also assists customers in developing compliance control strategies tailored to their pollution control configurations. While coal-fired power generation remains a significant but declining market, Arq is expanding into other industrial applications, water treatment, and soil remediation markets. The company anticipates growth in water purification markets driven by new EPA regulations effective by 2029, with potential extensions to 2031, and increasing concerns over groundwater contamination. Arq’s products support compliance with environmental regulations and contribute to improving air, water, and soil quality.
