Powder activated carbon is divided into wood powder activated carbon and coal powder activated carbon according to the material. It is black powder in appearance, and the main particle sizes are 200 mesh and 325 mesh. This product has the appearance of black powder and is insoluble in general solutions. It has the characteristics of strong specific surface area, high purity, fast filtration speed, stable quality, good flocculation effect, and good filtration effect. powder activated carbon has a wide range of uses and is applicable to many industries. Today we mainly introduce the uses and characteristics of powder activated carbon:
The particle size of powder activated carbon is small, usually micron-level, and the commonly used specifications are 200 mesh and 325 mesh. It has a large specific surface area, so it can quickly adsorb pollutants in water. Due to its fine particle size, powder activated carbon shows a higher adsorption rate in water treatment, especially when dealing with high concentrations of pollutants that need to be treated quickly, its performance is particularly outstanding.
Decolorization characteristics of powder activated carbon: powder activated carbon has the ability to adsorb impurities. This is because the adsorption performance of powder activated carbon can turn colored liquids into light-colored or colorless. The adsorption principle of powder activated carbon is to adsorb the pigment molecules in the liquid into the activated carbon. After filtering out the activated carbon, the remaining liquid becomes transparent.
Characteristics of the use of powder activated carbon
1. powder activated carbon can be used as the basic raw material for honeycomb activated carbon and columnar activated carbon;
2. powder activated carbon can be used for the purification of microorganisms;
3. powder activated carbon can decolorize, purify water, remove odors, absorb formaldehyde, etc.;
4. powder activated carbon can purify many substances.
Powder activated carbon is suitable for use in occasions with large pollution loads and high treatment requirements. Due to its fast adsorption speed, it can effectively remove high concentrations of organic pollutants in a short time, so it is often used in some intermittent treatment or emergency treatment processes.
