12 Drivers for Continued Growth Mercury Removal from Power Plant Flue Gas Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) Injection is leading abatement technology Potential single largest market for activated carbon Regulation-driven market in the U.S. IA, IL State CO, CT, DE, IL, MA, MD, MN, MT, NC, NH, NJ, NM, PA, VA, WI FL, GA, IN, KS, MI, SC, WA Action Finalized State Legislation New Source Permits or Settlements Proposed State Legislation Source: Clean Air Companies Members Only Website Federal timing and treatment requirements of regulations are uncertain Clean Air Mercury Rule overturned EPA has filed appeal. Ultimately stricter requirements expected which will lead to significant increase in PAC use State regulations are main market drivers 11

13 Drivers for Continued Growth (Cont d) Mercury Removal from Power Plant Flue Gas CCC awarded $55M contract by major U.S. power generator Other contracts under discussion Illinois EPA approved two CCC high-performance carbons Market will eventually require production capacity expansion World supply and demand for activated carbon are coming into balance at 1.4B lbs demand for mercury removal M lbs.* Current U.S. producers are adding capacity to meet demand. B-line expansion Efficiency improvements Future demand -??? Long-term positive for AC industry and CCC * Source Discussions with Potential Customers 12

14 How PAC Removes Mercury from Flue Gas Injection of Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) into the power plant flue gas stream, which adsorbs the mercury released by the burning coal, is widely considered the most practical, effective control technology. PAC is injected into the flue gas stream. The PAC (which holds the mercury) and particulate matter (fly ash), is removed by an Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) and sent to landfill disposal or sold to cement manufacturers. 13

15 CCC Has Flexibility to Add Low-Cost PAC Capacity Expansion Production Capacity Capital Cost Status (M lb.) ($M) Re-start Production Line (B-line) 70 ~21 1Q09 Startup Efficiency Improvements Startup Convert GAC Production to PAC 80 0 Under Consideration Add Two Production Lines at Existing Plant Under Consideration 14

16 Other Drivers for Continued Growth UV Light for Drinking Water and Wastewater Disinfection $3-billion market 25%+ growth per year ( ) Drinking Water Disinfection ($1 billion) Control of Cryptosporidium driven by U.S. legislation (LT2) U.S. municipalities must treat for Crypto" by 2012 Sentinel reactors (installed and sold) to treat 3 bgd+ Wastewater Disinfection ($2 billion) Launched C 3 Product Line in 2004 and 2005 C 3 products treating more than 200 mgd Wastewater Reuse Market Growing Emerging Markets for Drinking Water Oxidation Taste and Odor Newly Recognized Contaminants 15

17 Other Drivers for Continued Growth (Cont d) Potable Water Treatment Stage 2 Disinfection By-Product Rule Potential for 600+ new activated carbon systems CCC awarded two major contracts ($9.4M) Carbon Cloth Personnel Protection Regional Expansion Regional Targets for Growth Opportunity(ies) - Asia - Carbon & Reactivation Svc. - China - Carbon & Reactivation Svc. to Multinationals - Central Europe - Carbon & Service - Southern Europe - Carbon & Reactivation Svc. 16

18 CCC Is Managing Significant Cost Increases Raw materials and energy costs for production of activated carbon have increased significantly Coal Pitch Natural Gas All activated carbon manufacturers are experiencing cost increases - including the Chinese CCC is better positioned to manage cost increases Long-term coal supply contracts Hedging natural gas Tariffs on certain carbons imported from China CCC has successfully passed cost escalation to customers CCC is well positioned against competing technologies Price increase in Europe effective 11/15/08 Price Increase in U.S. effective 12/01/08 Price increase in Asia to follow increase in U.S. 17
