Shell activated carbon is a solid carbon material, produced by pulverizing coal, followed by carbonization and activation to form uniform coal particles. Its main component is carbon, with strong adsorption properties and a wide range of industrial applications. Next, the activated carbon manufacturer will introduce the functions and usage precautions of shell activated carbon.
I. Important Usage Precautions for Shell Activated Carbon
1. Clean the unit before use. Otherwise, the black dust may affect the clarity of the water quality. Manufacturers of activated carbon recommend not to rinse directly with tap water. After the coconut shell activated carbon absorbs a large amount of chlorine and bleach from tap water, placing it in a filter can damage the water quality.
2. Coconut shell activated carbon should be replaced regularly to prevent it from becoming ineffective due to "adsorption saturation." Do not wait until a malfunction occurs to replace it; only then can the activated carbon continue to remove harmful substances from the water tank. Manufacturers of activated carbon recommend replacing it 1-2 times per month.
Shell Activated Carbon Cleaning
The shell activated carbon from our activated carbon manufacturer has an adsorption property, which can absorb impurities and odors. Therefore, it can serve as a cleaning agent when exposed to sunlight during regular cleaning. It is also reusable for a long time until the activated carbon diminishes.
Section 3: Maintenance of Shell Activated Carbon
After a period of use, the shell activated carbon has reached its bottleneck, affecting its functionality. Therefore, the activated carbon should be regularly exposed to the sun to maintain its dryness, reused, and thus extend the product's lifespan.
Section 4: The Adsorption Characteristics and Process of Fruit Shell Activated Carbon
Our activated carbon products are characterized by rapid color fading, diligent adsorption, effectively removing pigments and reducing residuals, without affecting the concentration of other ingredients.
Activated Carbon Manufacturers Remind: When purchasing, remember that smaller particles are more effective, with a larger total surface area and more pores. However, too fine particles cannot be ground into powder. To avoid inconvenience during use and affect the filter's flow rate, be cautious. The particle size of the fruit shell activated carbon produced by activated carbon manufacturers is generally around 1MM in diameter.
Physical adsorption of activated carbon in shells, also known as van der Waals adsorption, is a type of physical adsorption caused by electrostatic or van der Waals forces between the adsorbent and the adsorbent molecules. When the molecular attraction between the solid and gas is greater than the attraction between gas molecules themselves, even if the gas pressure is lower than the saturated vapor pressure corresponding to the working temperature, gas molecules will condense on the solid surface.
