Coconut shell based activated carbon manufacturers in India: Southern Carbon

Activated carbon made from coconut husk is an eco-friendly solution to the purification needs of various industries. The large-scale production of activated carbon from coconut shell manufacturers in India caters to countless industries that need activated charcoal. Southern Carbon is among the premier coconut shell based activated carbon manufacturers in India, with more than 20 years of experience in the industry, and we also offer the best coconut shell activated carbon price in India. Coconut husk is one of the easily obtainable raw materials that can ensure the safety and non-toxicity of drinking water in the form of activated carbon.

Activated carbon from coconut shell manufacturers in India

Generally, a greater iodine test is a common method to determine the quality of the activated charcoal. A higher iodine number indicates better-quality activated charcoal, which translates to better adsorption and durability. Activated carbon from coconut shell manufacturers in India believe that the best quality activated charcoal is made from coconut husk, especially for water purification. The coconut shell activated carbon price in India, compared to many other materials, is rather low due to the easy availability of the raw materials.Among the coconut shell based activated carbon manufacturers in India, we have built a reputation for our consistency and quality and revolutionised the activated charcoal industry with an array of high-end products. Activated charcoal is one of our top products, with applications in a great many industries, so here we will discuss the particularities of activated charcoal made from coconut husks.

Properties of coconut shell activated charcoal

Cultivated in hot and humid tropical climates, coconut palms are popular for their fruit, the coconut. The coconut shell used to produce the activated charcoal comes from this fruit; the husk of the coconut is a hard protective layer around the actual fleshy part of the fruit. The activated charcoal produced from coconut shells has an abundance of micropores, which automatically leads to better adsorption, especially when it comes to removing organic pollutants from water.Activated carbon from coconut shell manufacturers in India usually uses the vapour activation method to activate the charcoal made from coconut husk, which also removes any harmful chemicals that could react with or pollute the substances it comes in contact with. For coconut shell based activated carbon manufacturers in India, coconut shell is an easy-to-obtain raw material. Micropores and mesopores in activated charcoal made from coconut shells have a width between 5 nm and 50 nm, making them ideal for adsorbing small molecular-sized pollutants. Another interesting characteristic of coconut shell activated charcoal is that it can be made in any size and has a neutral pH.

Why should you choose coconut shell activated charcoal? 

There are many reasons you should choose activated charcoal made from coconut husk, especially if your intent is thorough purification. Here, let’s take a look at a few of those reasons.

Safety:
The activated charcoal made from coconut husks is nontoxic, odourless, and tasteless. Activated charcoal can be made from a variety of raw materials, but coconut shell activated charcoal is the safest option to consider if the objective is water purification. Food processing, alcohol processing, and medicinal use are other industries that require high safety measures and should use activated carbon made from coconut shells.

Environmental impact:
Coconut husk is a renewable raw material, and the carbon from coconut shell or any other organic raw material can be absorbed and put back into the carbon cycle with plants; thus, activated charcoal from coconut shell is an environmentally friendly material.

Longevity and adsorption:
Activated charcoal made from coconut husk also has a high iodine value and great pore structure compared to any other activated carbon, which directly translates to impressive adsorption performance and longevity.

Cost-effective:
The coconut shell activated carbon price in India is much cheaper than any other alternative on the market. Coconut husk is an easily obtainable material, abundant in Kerala, where southern carbon is based. We collect quality raw materials and produce high-end coconut shell activated charcoal cost-effectively.

Activated charcoal production

The production of activated charcoal from coconut shells involves a chain of procedures and steps. Activated carbon from coconut shell manufacturers in India starts with the first step of production, which is acquiring the raw material and preparing it. The preparation phase involves removing any impurities and debris from the raw material and crushing and drying it to remove any excess moisture. After preparing the coconut shells, the material is transferred to a furnace for the next step of the procedure.During carbonization, the coconut shells are exposed to high temperatures. The material dehydrates, releases gases such as CO2 and H2S, goes through pyrolysis and polycondensation, and finally forms charcoal. The final product of carbonization is still not activated charcoal; the carbonized coconut husk undergoes oxidation at high temperatures in an activation furnace. This process creates even more pores on the surface of the material and enlarges the already existing pores. It also removes any unwanted substances from the charcoal.Southern Carbon’s activated carbon plant in Kerala goes through these steps and produces high-quality activated carbon from coconut shells. Further screening procedures before packaging the activated carbon include washing, drying, grinding, and screening. Southern Carbon is the most trusted producer of powdered activated carbon in India, exporting to clients not only in India but across the globe. 23 years of experience in the activated charcoal industry have cemented our name, and we are constantly improving, expanding to new horizons, and striving to bring the best products to the market.
