To create its activated carbon form the coconut under goes a steam "}},{"id":"zmOmTs4Fr9","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"activation process.During activation, it creates millions of pores at the surface of the carbon thus increasing the total surface area.This activated carbon known for high hardness and low dust.It’s colour is black.It is a totally natural,environmentally friendly product, that has a very small carbon foot print,since it is derived from coconut shell. As most of its pore structure consists of micropores(more than 80%),coconut shell carbon can efficiently absorb impurities with micropore molecular structure,such as those present in drinking water. In addition, because of its high abrasion resistance and exceptional chemical and physical characteristics, only coconut shell activated carbon can support applications such as recovery of gold and other precious metals."}},{"id":"veDblLqopV","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"1. As raw material, large quantities of coconut shells need to be cleaned first to remove dust and impurities on the surface and then dried,crushed and screened to obtain prepared coconut shell fragments of moderate size.Next,they sent to the carbonization furnace."}},{"id":"qzwU9V1udA","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"2. The coconut shell carbonization is mainly completed in the carbonization furnace. Under high temperatures (150-650°C), coconut shell undergoes a series of physical changes (dehydration and degassing, such as CO, CO2, H2S, etc.) and chemical changes (poly condensation and pyrolysis) to finally form a carbonised material with a primary pore structure."}},{"id":"oWpl4UugjT","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"3. The carbonized coconut shell is activated in an activation furnace. Under high temperatures(800-10500C),the water vapor,carbon di oxide,or air are taken as activating gases to oxidize the carbonized coconut shell for further enlarging the original pores in the body, create new pores and remove tar and other substances."}},{"id":"nRoXuO3kf7","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"4. The washing and drying is an optional process. It aims to remove impurities and heavy metals inside the activated carbon. The washing process includes acid washing and water washing which is carried out in the washing tank."}},{"id":"PKPyZ9UIQa","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"5. According to different application directions, coconut shell activated carbon often needs to be ground to different particle sizes.
