Industry Overview
Activated carbon, also known as active carbon or active charcoal, is a highly porous form of amorphous carbon characterized by its superior adsorption capacity compared with ordinary wood or animal charcoal. Carbon occurs naturally in several forms, including graphite and diamond, and is an essential constituent of plant and animal matter. Industrial carbon products are manufactured from coal, petroleum coke, wood, and various organic materials.
Activated carbon is produced in different forms, including granules, pellets, and fine powders, to meet diverse industrial requirements. Commercial products are generally classified as decolorizing carbons, gas absorbent carbons, metal absorbent chars, and medicinal carbons, depending on their physical properties and intended applications. No single type is suitable for every purpose.
A wide range of raw materials can be used in activated carbon manufacturing. Conventional sources include coal, petroleum coke, and wood charcoal, while alternative materials include bagasse, straw, coconut shells, corn cobs, paddy husks, groundnut husks, distillery residues, waste wood pulp liquor, and sugar factory sludge. These materials can be processed using gas activation or chemical activation, depending on the raw material and desired product characteristics.
Bamboo is a potential renewable feedstock for activated carbon production. A manufacturing facility with a stated capacity of 20 MT/day requires appropriate raw material preparation, activation equipment, process control, and product testing facilities. The resulting activated carbon can serve applications such as water treatment, gas purification, decolorization, and other industrial adsorption processes. Product quality depends on the raw material, manufacturing method, pore structure, and adsorption characteristics required by the end user.
