Activated Carbon

Yuanying activated carbon has high mechanical strength, quick adsorption speed, big adsorption capacity, large specific surface area, rich pore structure, strong decolorization capacity, special electronic properties, easy to regulate surface groups, strong acid-resistant, alkali-resistant and heat-resistant properties.
According to user’s requirements, different production methods are applied such as chemical method, physical method, chemical-physical or physical-chemical method.
The most common use of activated carbon is air purification, water treatment, catalyst carrier.
Air Purification Activated Carbon is made of wood, coal or coconut shell, granular or cylindrical appearance. For air purification, the best is coconut shell. It can efficaciously adsorb methanol, ammonia, radon, benzene, xylene, exhaust gas, lampblack, especially aromatic compound.
The raw materials of water treatment activated carbon have coconut shells, walnut shell, apricot, peach shell, wood, coal and so on, the coconut shell activated carbon is considered the best water treatment activated carbon. Water treatment activated carbon has powder, granule and columnar, among them granule is the most widely used. The smaller granularity, the faster absorption, but head loss increases, usually in 8-30 mesh is better.
Activated carbon as catalyst carrier also can be directly as catalyst. As a carrier, mainly used to carry catalyst, lets catalyst load on its surface and makes it possess certain physical and chemical property, carrier itself generally does not have catalytic activity.
