How to use coconut shell activated carbon?
Coconut shell activated carbon is a carbon material that has been carbonized and activated at high temperatures, It has the characteristics of high porosity and strong adsorption capacity,It is a high-quality adsorbent. Coconut shell activated carbon has a wide range of uses and is used in gas adsorption, liquid adsorption, etc.; common household air purifiers and water dispensers can effectively purify harmful gases in the air, such as carbon dioxide, benzene, formaldehyde, etc., and can also remove harmful substances in water. Such as chlorine, benzene and other organic compounds and odors.
Before using coconut shell activated carbon, you must determine what field it will be used in, and choose the appropriate method of using coconut shell activated carbon according to the usage scenario;
1.Household water purifier or water dispenser:
Put coconut shell activated carbon into the filter element, and then insert it into a household water purifier or water dispenser;
Every once in a while, the water purifier or bottled water machine should be cleaned to prevent impurities from passing through the filter element;
If the water quality used is relatively poor, the filter element will be more likely to be clogged, so it is recommended to replace the filter element more frequently.
How often should the filter element of a household water purifier or water dispenser be replaced?
Usually the filter element needs to be replaced every 3-6 months. If the water quality is poor, the replacement cycle can be shortened to 3 months, depending on the usage;
2.Purify indoor air
Place the coconut shell activated carbon filter element in the air purifier, and use a special coconut shell activated carbon filter element in the air purifier;
Place the purchased carbon bag or coconut shell activated carbon directly in the corner of the room or place it in a place with high humidity for air purification and adsorption; use the carbon bag or directly place the coconut shell activated carbon indoors, and the usage amount of each place is about 500g; indoor purification The air must be replaced regularly depending on the use environment;
3.Water plant
In tap water treatment systems, activated carbon is often used as a secondary filtration process, mainly used to remove foreign colors and odors in water. Generally speaking, the dosage is between 0.5-1 g/L.
4.Industrial water treatment system
In industrial water treatment systems, activated carbon has a wider range of applications and can be used to remove different types of organic matter, dissolved oxygen, heavy metals and other impurities. In this case, the dosage is usually 1-2 g/L.
5.Sewage treatment
The dosage of coconut shell activated carbon is determined according to the COD value of the sewage. Generally, the dosage of activated carbon is 10%-20% of the COD. If the COD value of sewage is relatively high, the dosage can be increased appropriately.
6.Aquaculture
In aquaculture, coconut shell activated carbon can be used to improve water quality and increase the oxygen content in the water. Coconut shell activated carbon is put into the aquaculture filter. Before using coconut shell activated carbon, it is best to soak the activated carbon in fresh water for a period of time. time to remove residue and suspended particles before release;
7.Gold Extraction
Coconut shell activated carbon needs to be used in the leaching, adsorption and washing stages of gold mining. The addition time of activated carbon is generally before leaching, during adsorption and washing. The addition method can be direct addition or indirect injection.
