Coconut Shell Based Activated Carbon

SMS Exporters are activated carbon suppliers to customers, world -wide. Coconut Shell based ActivatedCarbon is a byproduct of Coconut and is derived by burning Coconut shells under regulated conditions.
Activated Carbon is a solid material consisting mainly of pure carbon and is the most powerfuladsorbent. Its characteristic feature is the porous structure, and the resultant vast surface area, whichmay be as large as 1500 m2/gm., Coconut Shell based Granular Activated Carbon is widely used in thewater purification process plants, due to its exceptional adsorption qualities. The benefits of usingCoconut Shell based Granular Activated Carbon are low cost and higher efficiency in water treatment,such as removal of odor, color and recuperation.
The Coconut Shell based Charcoal is activated by reaction with steam at a temperature of 900oC -1100oC, under controlled atmosphere in a rotary kiln. The reaction between steam and Charcoal takesplace at the internal surface area, creating more sites for adsorption.
The temperature factor, in the process of activation is very important. Below 900oC the reactionbecomes too slow, and is very uneconomical, and above 1100oC the reaction becomes diffusioncontrolled, and therefore takes place on the outer surface of the Charcoal resulting in loss of charcoal.
SMS Exporters as the leading activated carbon suppliers and have adequate facilities to supply CoconutShell based Granular Activated Carbon to customers’ exact specifications. Deliveries can be executedregularly on time, in required volumes, at competitive costs.
Keeping in view the enormous potential we as the leading activated carbon manufacturers have gearedup to meet any volumes as demanded by the customer.
