Activated Carbon screening

Success Story: Activated Carbon

Overview

Activated carbon or activated charcoal is the black residue that is formed after burning coal or coconut shell and further processing. The chemical reactions forming can rearrange the carbon atoms from tiny pores. So that the activated charcoal can have a huge surface area. In fact, just one gram of charcoal can have from 500 to 1500 square meters of surface area.

Due to its adsorption quality molecules bind to the surface of activated charcoal pores which eliminates the impurities present in the material. Activated carbon is used in many applications like in food & pharma products, water purification, automobiles, pollution control, wastewater, and many more.

One of our renowned customers and the producer of activated carbon were facing a few challenges while sieving the material. Let us understand what was the problem they were facing and what solution was given to them by our sieving experts.

Requirement & Challenges

The customer is the leader in providing high-grade activated carbon to various processing industries. Their production requirement was to generate 1.5 tons/hr capacity of activated carbon. But unfortunately, they were getting 1ton/hr because of the screening process. The customer was using a rotary sieve 450mm diameter / 2000mm length with an output of 1 ton/hr. They faced a big problem during winters as the moisture content of raw material increased by 15%. Due to this mesh life span decreases to 15 days only. Hence they need to stop production and change the mesh.
