Activated Carbon

High carbon content with organic material such as coal, wood, and coconut husks is processed to manufacture activated carbon. The main property of activated carbon is physical absorption which is useful for the purification of water treatment, metal finishing, medicine, fuel storage and many others. Porous structure of activated carbon along with its versatility, have made it one of the most extensively used adsorbents.

Increased demand for clean drinking water and environment protocols to control carbon and pollutants emission are the major drivers which help in surging the growth of activated carbon market whereas high price of raw material act as a restraining factor for this market. Application such as decolonization, deodorization, and solvent recovery is expected to drive the demand in the forecast period.

Know The Difference Between Biochar And Charcoal

Image
Biochar is one of the type of charcoal that is used as a soil amendment for both soil health benefits and carbon sequestration. Biochar is a stable solid and is rich in carbon; also, it can endure in soil up to thousands of years. Like most of the charcoal, biochar is also made from biomass through pyrolysis. Various research is going on biochar as a viable approach for carbon sequestration since it has the capabilities to help mitigate climate change and global warming. Download PDF Sample Copy Here   Biochar Biochar can increase soil fertility of acidic soils (low pH soils), increase agricultural productivity, and provide protection against some foliar and soil-borne diseases. By nature, biochar is hygroscopic. Hence, it is a desirable soil material in many locations due to its ability to attract and retain water. When biochar is used for energy production instead of a soil amendment, it can be directly substituted for other application that uses coal. Pyrolysis can also be the most
