It has three types: <\/span><span data-font-family=\"default\">macroporous, mesoporous and microporous.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-font-family=\"default\">Macroporous: &gt;50nm<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-font-family=\"default\">Mesoporous: 2-50nm<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-font-family=\"default\">Microporous: &lt;2nm<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span data-font-family=\"default\">Activated carbon iodine value (ASTM D4607-94)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">Iodine value is also the iodine absorption value, which is used to indicate the absorption capacity of activated carbon for liquid substances; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">It is the most important index of activated carbon. The higher the iodine is, the better activated carbon is.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Moisture content<\/h3>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">After activation and carbonization, the moisture of activated carbon is very less. The following is the moisture of different activated carbon types.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-font-family=\"default\">Coconut shell activated carbon: &lt;5%<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-font-family=\"default\">Coal activated carbon: &lt;5%<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-font-family=\"default\">Wood powder activated caron: 10-12%<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">Generally, the moisture of activated carbon is very easy to determine by oven drying method.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-font-family=\"default\">Ash (ASTM D2866-94)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">In addition to carbon, the chemical composition of activated carbon also contains two substances, one is chemically bonded elements, such as oxygen and hydrogen; the other is ash.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">The ash content varies with the different types of activated carbon. And the relative content of ash in activated carbon increases with the degree of carbon activation of the raw material.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-font-family=\"default\">Coconut shell activated carbon: &lt;3%<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-font-family=\"default\">Coal based activated carbon: 8-15%<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">Generally\uff0cfor water and air filters application, we need to control the ash of activated carbon, so that it will affect the machine working performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><span data-font-family=\"default\">Activated carbon hardness (ASTM D3802-89)<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">Hardness refers to the wear resistance of activated carbon. They have a great relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">These mechanical properties directly affect the performance of activated carbon. For example, in the gold recovery, choosing the better hardness of activated carbon is particularly important, which will reduce gold loss with high carbonaceous hardness.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Methylene blue value<\/h3>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">The methylene blue value is used to represent the decolorization ability of activated carbon. It is mostly used to indicate the liquid decolorization ability of powdered activated carbon. The higher the methylene blue value is, the better the decolorization performance will be under the same unit weight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">The detection of methylene blue by coal-based activated carbon is usually in mg\/g, and ml\/0.1g is used for wood-based activated carbon.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Molasses value<\/h3>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">Refers to the decolorization ability of activated carbon on molasses solution. The molasses value is also a sign of development degree of the macropores of activated carbon. There is no detection standard for molasses value in China. Generally, the standard of Calgon in the United States is used for testing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">In China, through coal blending technology to adjust the pore distribution, it can also produce large pores of activated carbon, which is called <\/span><span data-font-family=\"default\">agglomerated&nbsp;activated&nbsp;carbons<\/span><span data-font-family=\"default\">. With the high molasses value, it can be used in macromolecules fields.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><span data-font-family=\"default\">CTC (ASTM D3476-04)<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">carbon tetrachloride (CTC) adsorption value is used to indicate the absorption capacity of activated carbon for gas substances. <\/span><span data-font-family=\"default\">It is the main detection method for the quality control of gas-phase.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-font-family=\"default\">Activated carbon regeneration<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">Activated carbon has been as the common adsorben in the word. How to deal with the used activated carbon has become an important problem. When activated carbon reaches a saturation point after a period of adsorption, and most of the activated carbon is directly discarded, buried or incinerated. This has caused a waste of resources and environmental pollution. In fact, used activated carbon can be regenerated..<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-font-family=\"default\">Activated carbon regeneration is to reactivate the fully adsorbed activated carbon after being treated under certain conditions. Activated carbon adsorption is a physical process, so high-temperature can desorbe the impuries inside to restore their original activity.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Glossary of activated carbon Glossary Table of Contents Activated carbon structure Activated carbon is based as carbon to form the main components.
