Case Studies - Odor Remove June 29 2013, 6 Comments

Case 1:  Kid's Poo Poo Smell

My son was the first kid to enter this new daycare - Chester Le Day Care Centre in Jan., 2012. One day afternoon in early July, 2012, the supervisor told me there were a very bad smell in the infant's washroom. She asked me to use our carbon filter to remove the odors. There is no windows and fans on the ceiling in this washroom. The lower part of door always closed. The smell was very bed due to a lot of kids poo poo yesterday, you have to hold you breath to avoid the smell. I placed 5 carbon filters in this 5 square meters washroom in the morning. There is almost no smell in the next morning when I enter this washroom. Both the staffs of infant room and supervisor are very happy. Almost one year past, the carbon bags are working very well.

Case 2: Dog's Odor

My friend Mr. Rathnan Tharan has a 70lb dog at home. The dog spends her most of time at sitting room, drinking, eating and sleeping as well. There is dog's smell in this room you will feel it when you stay in this room. Last week, I give him some samples as a gift since he helped me a lot to set up this new website. He came to my house and told me, there is no the dog's smell at all after using my carbon filter. He just put one carbon filter close to the dog's sleeping area, the odor is gone in the room in the next day. It is a mazy!

Case 3: Old Washroom's Odor

My mother-in-law is living in a 15 years' condo in Shanghai, China. There is a odor in the washroom she can not clean it. She opened the door and window even turn on the ceiling's fan. it does not working. I asked the carbon factory to send 10 carbon filters to her in March, 2103. She only place 3 carbon filters in this 5 square meter washroom. The odor is disappeared in the next morning. She was so happy with carbon 's performance.

Case 4: Remove the new furniture's odor

My brother bought a new set of furniture for her daughter in Shanghai, China. There is odors in her hed room for a long time. He opens all the windows and door all day time since the furniture was arrived. But every morming, He feels the odors is always there in the room. I give him 24 carbon fliters in May, 2013. He placed the carbon filters on the surface of furiture and inside of drawers. Her daughter told me the odor is very light in her room in the next early morming.

Case 5: Remove the new car's odor

I felt dizzy in Kavin's new car when we went to Waterloo to look at the Stage IV in May, 2013. Kevin is a real estate agent. He bought his new car last year. But there is odors inside inhis car you can feel it. I give him 3 packs and put in into his car on June 13, 2013. He bought one carton (100 packs) as a gift to his client. One week late, he told me the performance of carbon is very good. He will buy more.

Case 6: Best Gift to Your Friends Who Buy a Now House/Condos

My teacher's daughter is going to marry by end this year. I sent a 120 packs to him as a small gift when I heard the news in June 2013. Her daughter's new condos has 113 square meter. The home renovation will be completed by middle of July, 2013. It is first time for my tescher to hear the activated carbon to remove the odors and VOCs from me.

He told me he will open the windows every day to remove the odors for half year after renovation. He is worried the quality of air after renovation. There are a lot odors, VOCs in the room from the builging material and furiture. Now, He is very happy and will not worry the environment problem after he saw Jurassic Carbon's odor absorber.

State-of-the-art of Controlling Mercury Emissions by Activated Carbon Injection May 09 2013, 8 Comments

 

ACI has achieved moderate to high levels of Hg control. The performance of an activated carbon is related to its physical and chemical characteristics. Generally, the physical properties of interest are surface area, pore size distribution, and particle size distribution. The capacity for Hg capture generally increases with increasing surface area and pore volume. The ability of Hg and other sorbates to penetrate into the interior of a particle is related to pore size distribution.

 

Carbon sorbent capacity is dependent on temperature, the concentration of Hg in the flue gas, the flue gas composition, and other factors. In general, the capacity for adsorbing Hg2+ will be different than that for Hg0.The selection of a carbon for a given application would take into consideration the total concentration of Hg, the relative amounts of Hg° and Hg2+, the flue gas composition, and the method of capture [electrostatic precipitator (ESP), FF, or dry FGD scrubber

ACI may be used either in conjunction with existing control technologies and/or with additional control such as the addition of an FF. To date ACI has only been evaluated during short-term tests on commercially operating electrical generating plants. Longer-term tests of ACI have been limited to continuous operation, 24 hr/day-7days/week, for a period of less than two weeks at four field test sites. Also, combustion modification, such as coal reburning technology, may increase the carbon in fly ash and yield enhanced Hg capture in PM control devices

 

 


What is the Properties of Activated Carbon? May 09 2013, 6 Comments

Activated carbon products can be characterized by physical properties and activity properties. Both physical and activity properties become important factors in the specification of commercial carbons for POU applications.

Important physical properties are surface area, product density; mesh size, abrasion resistance and ash content. In water treatment applications, carbon density is expressed as back washed and drained (BWD) or bulk density. This establishes the number of pounds of carbon required to fill a back washable filter, and is expressed in terms of pounds per cubic foot.

Mesh size (8x30, 12x40, 20x50, etc.) establishes the range of particle sizes and thus, the effective particle size that will be used in a filter. Particle size is an important parameter in specifying carbons for specific applications, affecting such operating conditions as pressure drop, filtration capabilities, backwash rate requirements and the rate of adsorption of contaminants. While a smaller particle size effects more pressure drop across a carbon bed, the rate of diffusion of an organic into the pore and its subsequent adsorption is significantly increased.

Another important characteristic that distinguishes different types of liquid phase carbons is abrasion resistance. Abrasion resistance refers to a carbon's ability to withstand degradation during handling and is expressed in terms of abrasion number. The higher the abrasion number, the more resistant the carbon is to abrasion.

The final important physical property of activated carbon is ash level, which reflects the purity of the carbon. It is the inorganic residue left after heating of the raw material. Common ash constituents of coal-based carbons are silica, alumina, iron, calcium and magnesium.

Activity characterizations are key indicators of a carbon's potential performance for removing contaminants from water. An important characterization tool used in determining the ability of a carbon to adsorb a particular adsorbent is the pore size distribution, which is usually depicted in the form of a curve (Figure 1). The pore size distribution is produced through adsorption of gases and liquids under pressure. It defines the avail- able pore volume of a carbon over three pore size regions: The micropore region (less than 100 Angstroms. in size), mesopore region (between 100 and 1,000 Angstroms), and macropore region (greater than 1,000 Angstroms).

The molecules encountered in gas phase are generally smaller and more mobile than those in liquid phase applications. Therefore, a gas phase carbon has the majority of its pores concentrated in the micropore region. There is a wider range of molecular sizes in liquid phase work (taste and odor, color bodies, organics, pesticides), and adsorbates are less mobile in water. This means a broader range of pore sizes must be available, both for ease of movement of adsorbates through the carbon pores and for adsorption of particular molecular sizes. Inexpensive tests have traditionally been used to approximate the distribution of pores available for a carbon as just described. These tests include the adsorption of a single standard reference adsorbate, and give the ability to distinguish activity characteristics of different carbons.

Iodine is the most common standard adsorbate and is often used as a general measurement of carbon capacity. However, because of its small molecular size, Iodine more accurately defines the small pore or micropore volume of a carbon and thus reflects its ability to adsorb low molecular weight, small substances. Iodine number is defined as the milligrams of Iodine adsorbed by one gram of carbon, and it approximates the internal surface area (square meters per gram).

Molasses number is a measure of the degree of de-colorization of a standard molasses solution. Because color pigments are large and cannot penetrate into small pores, the molasses number defines the large pore or macropore volume of a carbon. It is used as a relative guideline for measuring the capacity of a carbon for larger adsorbate molecules.


How Does Activated Carbon Works? May 09 2013, 22 Comments

Physical adsorption is the primary means by which activated carbon works to remove contaminants from water. Carbon's highly porous nature provides a large surface area for contaminants (adsorbates) to collect. In simple terms, physical adsorption occurs because all molecules exert attractive forces, especially molecules at the surface of a solid (pore walls of carbon), and these surface molecules seek other molecules to adhere to.

The large internal surface area of carbon has many attractive forces that work to attract other molecules. Thus, contaminants in water are adsorbed (or held) to the surface of carbon by surface attractive forces similar to gravitational forces. Adsorption from solution occurs as a result of differences in adsorbate concentration in the solution and in the carbon pores.

The adsorbate migrates from the solution through the pore channels to reach the area where the strongest attractive forces are. With this understanding of how the adsorption process works, we must then understand why it works, or why water contaminants become adsorbates. Water contaminants adsorb because the attraction of the carbon surface for them is stronger than the attractive forces that keep them dissolved in solution.

Those compounds that are more adsorbable onto activated carbon generally have a lower water solubility, are organic (made up of carbon atoms), have a higher molecular weight and a neutral or non-polar chemical nature. It should be pointed out that for water adsorbates to become physically adsorbed onto activated carbon, they must be both dissolved in water and smaller than the size of the carbon pore openings so that they can pass into the carbon pores and accumulate.

Besides physical adsorption, chemical reactions can occur on a carbon surface. One such reaction is chlorine removal from water involving the chemical reaction of chlorine with carbon to form chloride ions. This reaction is important to POU treatment because this conversion of chlorine to chloride is the basis for the removal of some common objectionable tastes and odors from drinking water. Water contaminants adsorb because the attraction of the carbon surface for them is stronger than the attractive forces that keep them dissolved in solution.                          


Lignite Coal Based Activated Carbon May 09 2013, 8 Comments

 

The carbon made from lignite tend to have a large pore diameter with a higher total pore volume (higher molasses number) that makes better suited for the removal of large color body molecules (removal of large molecular weight from chemical compound) from liquids and the removal of sulphur (Hydrogen Sulfide) from vapors. The carbon gives you greater adsorption capacity, high ignition temperature, lower iodine number plus lower density. Lignite based activated carbon is macroporous. It has 20% more total pore volume than bituminous based coal carbon.

 

 LC-PAC

Granular activated carbon produced by steam activation of lignite coal. This grade is specifically manufactured for applications requiring rapid. 12x40 or 8x30 Lignite Based Activated Carbon are a general purpose granular carbon grade used in a variety of applications including purification of fine chemicals and food.

LC-GAC

 

325 mesh powdered activated carbon used in a purification of water and flue gas emission streams. The Bromine treatment PAC has been proven to be highly effective for the removal of mercury at coal fire power generation. Its open pore structure and fine partice size permit rapid adsorption, which is critical for high performance in flue gas streams where contact times are short less than 2 seconds.

Powder activated carbon produced by steam activation or Zinc Chloride activation process of wood . This wood based activated carbon has high porosity and purity. Majority is being used in the water and wastewater treatment, decolorization and vapor phase injection systems.


Coconut Shell Activated Carbon May 09 2013, 4 Comments

 

Like its name, coconut shell activated carbon comes from the coconut shell. To create its activated carbon form, the coconut undergoes a steam activation process. During activation, it creates millions of pores at the surface of the carbon thus increasing the total surface area. Coconut shell carbon has mainly micro-pores to meso-pores and due to its unique distribution of pore diameter, coconut shell activated carbons are very popular in the gas phase purification and potable water purification industries.


Coal based activated carbon May 09 2013, 8 Comments

 

Coal based activated carbon originates from coal that has undergone a steam activation process. During activation,millions of pores are created on the surface of the carbon, increasing the total surface area. Coal based carbon has mainly meso-pores and macro-pores and due to its unique distribution of pore diameter, coal based activated carbon is very popular in gas phase purification, potable water purification, wastewater purification and aquarium/pond water purification applications.

What is the Activated Carbon? May 09 2013, 6 Comments

 What is the Activated Carbon?

 

The primary raw material used for activated carbon is any organic material with a high carbon content (coal, wood, peat, coconut shells). Granular activated carbon media is most commonly produced by grinding the raw material, adding a suitable binder to give it hardness, re-compacting and crushing to the correct size.

The carbon-based material is converted to activated carbon by thermal decomposition in a furnace using a controlled atmosphere and heat. The resultant product has an incredibly large surface area per unit volume, and a network of submicroscopic pores where adsorption takes place.

The walls of the pores provide the surface layer molecules essential for adsorption. Amazingly, one pound of carbon (a quart container) provides a surface area equivalent to six football fields

What is the Particle Size of Activated Carbon?

 

Activated carbon is a carbonaceous adsorbent with a high internal porosity, and hence a large internal surface area. Commercial activated carbon grades have an internal surface area of 500 up to 1500 m2/g. Related to the type of application, three major product groups exist:

  • Powdered activated carbon; particle size 1-150 μm
  • Granular activated carbon, particle size 0.5-4 mm
  • Extruded activated carbon, partilce size 0.8-4 mm

What is the type of internal pores?

 

A proper activated carbon has a number of unique characteristics: a large internal surface area, dedicated (surface) chemical properties and good accessibility of internal pores. According to IUPAC definitions three groups of pores are distinguished:

  • Macropores (> 50 nm diameter)
  • Mesopores (2-50 nm diameter)
  • Micropores (< 2 nm diameter)

Micropores generally contribute to the major part of the internal surface area. Macro and mesopores can generally be regarded as the highways into the carbon particle, and are crucial for kinetics. Macropores can be visualised using scanning electron microscopy. The pore size distribution is highly important for the practical application; the best fit depends on the compounds of interest, the matrix (gas, liquid) and treatment conditions.

The desired pore structure of an activated carbon product is attained by combining the right raw material and activation conditions.
