What are the raw materials for preparing activated carbon?

   There are many types of raw materials for producing activated carbon. Almost all carbon-containing raw materials can be used as raw materials, among which coal accounts for more than half of its total consumption. Currently, the raw materials for preparing activated carbon can be mainly divided into the following categories.

  1. Plant raw materials (woody raw materials)

  Activated carbon has a wide range of wood raw materials, and the commonly used ones are: charcoal, coconut shells, sawdust, bark, walnut shells, fruit cores, cotton shells, rice husks, bamboo, coffee bean stems, oil palm shells, furfural residue and pulp waste liquid etc.

  2. Coal raw materials

  Coal is an important raw material for manufacturing activated carbon. Activated carbon can be made from almost any coal. Among them, young anthracite coal with a short coal formation time, weakly caking coal, lignite and peat are all excellent raw materials for making activated carbon. Due to the rich coal resources, wide distribution and low price, the production of activated carbon from coal as raw material has good prospects.

  3. Plastics

  Polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, furan resin, phenolic resin, urea-formaldehyde resin, polycarbonate, polytetrafluoroethylene and other industrial recycling waste.

  4. Petroleum raw materials

  Petroleum raw materials mainly refer to carbon-containing products and waste materials in the petroleum refining process. For example, petroleum asphalt, petroleum coke, petroleum oil residue, etc.

Algeria horizontal carbonization furnace assembled in the workshop

图片
    Yesterday, the   horizontal carbonization furnace   ordered by Algerian customer from our company was assembled in Jiutian workshop. The test machine went smoothly and will be shipped soon.   The Algerian customer purchased this equipment mainly for sawdust processing. The sawdust are first made into rods with a biomass briquettes making machine, and then carbonized in a horizontal carbonization furnace. The horizontal carbonization furnace is used for the carbonization of long-stem biomass materials such as wood, bamboo, jute sticks, and straw. There are many models and can be customized according to requirements.   For other types of biomass raw materials, such as rice husk and coconut shell, we also provide continuous carbonization furnace and vertical carbonization furnace equipment, providing customized solutions according to your raw materials and output, giving you more choices. If you are interested in our machine or project, please contact us. ...

Processing process of sawdust into charcoal

图片
    Sawdust, a byproduct of wood processing, can be transformed into valuable charcoal through a meticulous processing process. This not only helps in reducing waste but also provides an eco-friendly alternative to traditional charcoal production methods.    The processing process of converting sawdust into charcoal involves several steps. The first step in the processing process is collecting and sorting the sawdust. It is important to ensure that the sawdust is free from any contaminants or impurities that may affect the quality of the final product. Once the sawdust has been collected and sorted, it is then dried to remove any excess moisture. This is crucial as wet sawdust can hinder the carbonization process and result in inferior quality charcoal. The dried sawdust is then heated in a  sawdust charcoal making machine  at high temperatures in the absence of oxygen. This process, known as carbonization, converts the sawdust into charcoal by driving...
