Coconut shell activated carbon is made from imported coconut shells from the Philippines, which are carbonized and activated in a high-temperature furnace. The product has well-developed pores, low density, large adsorption capacity, decolorization and deodorization, high product strength, long service life, large specific surface area, uniform particle size, developed pore structure, and strong adsorption performance.
At present, coconut shell activated carbon is a type of activated carbon used for purifying drinking water, removing chlorine and algae, and for extracting gold and other precious metals using the charcoal slurry method. It is also used as a filter core filler and other water purification equipment. Coconut shell activated carbon is a porous carbonized material with extremely rich pore structure and good adsorption properties. The adsorption effect is formed by physical and chemical adsorption forces, and the appearance color is black. In addition to the main carbon, each gram of activated carbon has a specific surface area equivalent to multiple square meters. The micropores of coconut shell activated carbon are different from those of coal based activated carbon products, with a higher iodine value than coal based activated carbon. The micropores are arranged in an irregular pattern, and the uniformity coefficient, specific surface area, and iodine adsorption value of the micropores are higher than those of existing activated carbon products. The adsorption capacity of activated carbon with ultra micropores reaches over 96% of the total pore size. Therefore, activated carbon ultra microporous series products are more suitable for adsorption and filtration of particles and small molecules. Ultra microporous series activated carbon is more suitable for fine industries with higher requirements such as petrochemicals, chemicals, and food environmental protection.
Application of Coconut Shell Activated Carbon
Coconut shell activated carbon is applied in various aspects of industrial and agricultural production, such as alkali free deodorization water purification and sewage treatment in the petrochemical industry; Water quality treatment and protection of power plants in the power industry; Decolorization and refining of chemical oils and fats in the chemical industry; Refining and decolorization of beverages, alcoholic beverages, monosodium glutamate mother liquor, and food in the food industry; Tail fluid recovery; Wastewater treatment in the environmental protection industry, as well as cigarette filters, wooden floors for moisture prevention, odor absorption, control of automobile gasoline evaporation pollution, and preparation of various impregnating agent liquids in related industries. Activated carbon will have excellent development prospects in the future.
