Production of New Activated Carbon Material
Carbonization and Activation Technology
-
Wasted Plastic
-
Carbonization & Activation
-
Powdered Activated Carbon
Process
-
1
Carbonization after crushing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic into small pieces
-
2
Mixing carbonized plastic samples with KOH as an activating agent
-
3
Processing the mixture of carbonized plastic samples and KOH at an activation temperature of 700°C for a predetermined time
Through carbonization and activation, well-developed micropores smaller than 2.0 nm are formed
and uniformly distributed

Granulation technology for powdered activated carbon
NIPS (Non-solvent Induced Phase Separation method)
When a polymer (binder) such as plastic is dissolved in a polar organic solvent and then dispersed in a non-solvent (water), the polar organic solvent dissolves into the non-solvent water, causing the organic solvent in the polymer environment to disappear and harden
When a polymer (binder) such as plastic is dissolved in a polar organic solvent and then dispersed in a non-solvent (water), the polar organic solvent dissolves into the non-solvent water, causing the organic solvent in the polymer environment to disappear and harden
-
1
Nitrogen is injected into the internal coagulation bath of the powdered activated carbon + binder mixture for extrusion and transfer
-
2
Solvent is injected into the internal coagulation bath using a syringe pump, discharged into the internal coagulation bath, and non-solvent is introduced
-
3
The organic solvent dissolves into the non-solvent, and when the powdered activated carbon hardens by the binder, granulation and drying proceed
Compared to conventional compression and extrusion forming methods, it is possible to improve the dispersibility of activated carbon → improved mechanical strength, durability, and specific surface area
