Activated Charcoal Powder
Activated Charcoal powder is a fine, black powder made from carbon-rich materials like wood or coal that have been heated at high temperatures to "activate" them. This process increases its surface area and creates a highly porous structure, making it excellent at adsorbing toxins, chemicals, and impurities.
Uses of Activated Charcoal Powder:
- Edible Oil Refining: Most efficient to remove impurities, odors, and colour (red colour) pigments from oils.
- Effluent Treatment: Utilized in wastewater treatment to remove organic compounds, suspended solids, and other pollutants.
- Water Filtration: Removes impurities, chlorine, and contaminants from drinking water. Also helps to reduce BOD and COD values in water.
