Coconut Shell Collection and Selection<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The manufacturing process begins with selecting premium coconut shells. These are typically sourced from the hardest part of the coconut, and careful screening is essential to ensure the activated carbon&rsquo;s quality. Most raw materials are sourced from Thailand and Hainan.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>02. Carbonization Process<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">After collection and cleaning, the coconut shells undergo high-temperature carbonization to remove moisture and impurities, leaving behind pure carbon material. This step forms the foundation for the activated carbon's adsorption performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>03. Activation Treatment<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The next step is the activation treatment, which imparts the coconut shell activated carbon with its excellent adsorption capabilities. This process can be either physical activation using high-temperature steam or chemical activation using chemical reagents, both contributing to the carbon&rsquo;s superior pore structure and surface area.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>04. Unique Pore Structure and Surface Area<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The superiority of coconut shell activated carbon lies in its unique micropore and mesopore structure, achieved through the activation process. These tiny pores provide excellent adsorption capacity, efficiently trapping harmful gases and impurities.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>05. Role of Iodine Value<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Iodine value is a key indicator of the adsorption performance of activated carbon. Coconut shell activated carbon typically boasts an iodine value of 800mg\/g or higher, even reaching up to 1200mg\/g. This is because the activation process enriches the carbon surface with iodine, giving it superior adsorption performance compared to bamboo and wood charcoal.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>06. Quality Control and Testing<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Strict quality control and testing are conducted throughout the manufacturing process to ensure that every batch of coconut shell activated carbon meets high standards. Tests include appearance, physical properties, and adsorption performance to provide users with reliable and high-quality purification materials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">For more information:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #236fa1; text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #236fa1; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.allcarbon.com.cn\/coconut-shell-activated-carbon-prepared-by-physical-activation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coconut Shell Activated Carbon Prepared by Physical Activation<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #236fa1; text-decoration: underline;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/oss.matchpages.cn\/matchpages\/common\/2024\/0123\/1149\/65af1adec3b92\/%E5%9B%BE%E7%89%873--3-.webp\" alt=\"Coconut Shell based Activated Carbon \" width=\"300\" data-resolution=\"632*634\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"line-height: 1.75;\"><span style=\"color: #045e14;\"><strong>Performance Features of Coconut Shell Activated Carbon<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol style=\"line-height: 1.75;\">\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Lightweight and Low Density<\/strong>: Compared to coal-based activated carbon, coconut shell activated carbon is lightweight, meaning that for the same weight, coconut shell carbon takes up more volume.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Buoyancy in Water<\/strong>: Due to its lower density, coconut shell activated carbon stays afloat in water longer than coal-based carbon.

<h2 id="h_43638579376271726733475350" style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #045e14;"><strong>Production Process of Coconut Shell Activated Carbon</strong></span></h2>
<h4 style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>01. Coconut Shell Collection and Selection</strong></span></h4>
<p style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;">The manufacturing process begins with selecting premium coconut shells. These are typically sourced from the hardest part of the coconut, and careful screening is essential to ensure the activated carbon’s quality. Most raw materials are sourced from Thailand and Hainan.</span></p>
<h4 style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>02. Carbonization Process</strong></span></h4>
<p style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;">After collection and cleaning, the coconut shells undergo high-temperature carbonization to remove moisture and impurities, leaving behind pure carbon material. This step forms the foundation for the activated carbon's adsorption performance.</span></p>
<h4 style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>03. Activation Treatment</strong></span></h4>
<p style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;">The next step is the activation treatment, which imparts the coconut shell activated carbon with its excellent adsorption capabilities. This process can be either physical activation using high-temperature steam or chemical activation using chemical reagents, both contributing to the carbon’s superior pore structure and surface area.</span></p>
<h4 style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>04. Unique Pore Structure and Surface Area</strong></span></h4>
<p style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;">The superiority of coconut shell activated carbon lies in its unique micropore and mesopore structure, achieved through the activation process. These tiny pores provide excellent adsorption capacity, efficiently trapping harmful gases and impurities.</span></p>
<h4 style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>05. Role of Iodine Value</strong></span></h4>
<p style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;">Iodine value is a key indicator of the adsorption performance of activated carbon. Coconut shell activated carbon typically boasts an iodine value of 800mg/g or higher, even reaching up to 1200mg/g. This is because the activation process enriches the carbon surface with iodine, giving it superior adsorption performance compared to bamboo and wood charcoal.</span></p>
<h4 style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>06. Quality Control and Testing</strong></span></h4>
<p style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #000000;">Strict quality control and testing are conducted throughout the manufacturing process to ensure that every batch of coconut shell activated carbon meets high standards. Tests include appearance, physical properties, and adsorption performance to provide users with reliable and high-quality purification materials.</span></p>

<h2 style="line-height: 1.75;"><span style="color: #045e14;"><strong>Performance Features of Coconut Shell Activated Carbon</strong></span></h2>
<ol style="line-height: 1.75;">
<li>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Lightweight and Low Density</strong>: Compared to coal-based activated carbon, coconut shell activated carbon is lightweight, meaning that for the same weight, coconut shell carbon takes up more volume.</span></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Buoyancy in Water</strong>: Due to its lower density, coconut shell activated carbon stays afloat in water longer than coal-based carbon. It gradually sinks as it adsorbs water molecules and becomes saturated.</span></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Small Molecular Pore Structure</strong>: Coconut shell activated carbon’s small pore structure releases air bubbles when placed in water, forming numerous tiny bubbles that continuously rise to the surface.</span></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Different Shapes</strong>: Coconut shell activated carbon is typically available in broken granular or flake form, while shaped carbons like cylindrical or spherical activated carbon are more commonly made from coal.</span></p>
</li>
