Activated Carbon Applications
Coconut shell activated carbon has numerous applications its absorption properties, high surface area and microporous structure.
Water Purification
Coconut shell activated carbon is widely used in water treatment processes to remove contaminants such as chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides and heavy metals in point-of-use filters, water pitchers and large-scale water treatment facilities.
Air Purification
Activated carbon filters made from coconut shell are used in air purification systems to remove odors, volatile organic compounds and airborne pollutants and are commonly found in HVAC systems, air purifiers and gas masks.
Food and Beverage Industry
Coconut shell activated carbon is used for decolorization, deodorization and purification in the food and beverage industry and it is applied in processes like sugar refining, fruit juice purification and alcohol distillation to remove impurities and undesirable flavors.
Pharmaceuticals
In pharmaceutical manufacturing, coconut shell activated carbon is used for the purification of antibiotics, vitamins and other pharmaceutical products and it helps remove impurities and contaminants from the final product.
Cosmetics and Personal Care
Coconut shell activated carbon is used in cosmetic products such as facial masks, soaps and toothpaste for its adsorption properties, helping to remove impurities and toxins from the skin and oral cavity.
Gold Recovery
Activated carbon derived from coconut shells is utilized in the gold mining industry for gold recovery from cyanide solutions and it absorbs the gold cyanide complex, allowing for efficient extraction of gold from the solution.
Water Treatment
Activated carbon made from coconut shells is used in wastewater treatment plants for the removal of organic pollutants, dyes and other contaminants from industrial and municipal wastewater streams.
Chemical Industry
Coconut shell activated carbon is used in various chemical processes for purification and separation purposes as it can remove impurities, colorants and odors from chemical products.
Gas Purification
Coconut shell activated carbon is used to purify gases by absorbing impurities such as sulphur compounds, VOCs an odorous gas and it finds applications in gas masks, respirators and industrial gas purification processes.
Environment Remediation
Activated carbon made from coconut shell is used in environment cleanup efforts to treat contaminated soil and groundwater as it can adsorb organic pollutants and heavy metals, helping to mitigate environment pollution.
