Commonalities and differences between charcoal and activated carbon

图片
Charcoal and activated carbon are two forms of carbon that have a lot of overlap and have very similar compositions and production methods. What are the differences between them?   Overview of charcoal and activated carbon   Charcoal Charcoal is considered to be a metamorphic form of graphitic carbon that is produced as a residue when carbon-rich materials are partially burned or burned in the absence of oxygen. Carbon-rich materials include mainly materials such as wood. One thing to note is that charcoal is not naturally occurring in nature. That is, it is a man-made product. Even if charcoal is found in nature, it is likely to have been produced due to the effects of high temperatures such as forest fires.   Activated carbon Activated carbon  is a carbon-rich solid that is extracted by pyrolysis from biomass or other carbon-containing materials such as coal or tar pitch. In this process, the carbon material is also "activated" through a process that greatly increases the s

What is activated carbon?

图片
Activated carbon is a highly porous substance that attracts and retains organic chemicals in it. The medium is created by first burning a carbonaceous material that does not contain oxygen, which produces carbon "char". Next, the "carbon" is chemically or physically treated to form a series of interconnected pores within the carbon. The large surface area of this internal pore network results in a very large surface area that can attract and hold organic chemicals. We offer activated carbon made from bituminous coal, lignite,   coconut shell   and wood.     What does activated carbon do? Activated carbon attracts and retains organic chemicals from vapor and liquid streams to  remove unwanted chemicals . It is not very capable of treating these chemicals, but is very cost effective in treating large volumes of air or water to remove dilute concentrations of contaminants. On a better note, when individuals ingest chemicals or are experiencing food poisoning, they are

What are the Applications of Coconut Shell Activated Carbon?

图片
Coconut shell activated carbon is made of high-quality coconut shell as raw material and refined through a series of production processes. The appearance of coconut shell activated carbon is black and granular. It has the advantages of well-developed pores, good adsorption performance, high strength, easy regeneration, economical durability, etc. However, due to problems such as the origin of coconut shell, the price is higher than that of conventional wooden activated carbon. Coconut Shell Activated Carbon The products are mainly used for the purification, decolorization, dechlorination, and deodorization of drinking water, purified water, wine, beverages, and industrial sewage; it can also be used for the desulfurization of the oil refining industry. Application 1. Coconut shell granular activated carbon is often used in gas phase adsorption, usually by letting air flow through the activated carbon layer for adsorption. According to the state of the activated carbon layer in the adso

How to reduce COD in wastewater?

In the context of rapid economic development, the impact of environmental pollution is becoming increasingly serious. The water pollution caused by sewage discharge is the most direct and serious consequence because it is related to the life safety and quality of life of people. Therefore, it is very important to reduce the discharge of harmful substances in wastewater and increase the utilization rate of recyclable wastewater. So, how to reduce COD in wastewater?   1. What is COD? Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is a chemical method to measure the amount of reducing substances that need to be oxidized in water samples, which is often expressed by the symbol cod. Cod is expressed in mg / L. COD values detected by water quality monitoring instruments can be divided into five categories. Among them, COD of the first and second categories is less than 15mg / L, which basically meets the drinking water standard. The remaining three COD values can not be used as drinking water. The third type
