Wood Granular Activated Carbon
Wood granular activated carbon, also known as wood GAC, is a highly porous and adsorbent material derived from wood-based sources such as coconut shells, nutshells, and sawdust. It undergoes a process called activation to create a network of small pores, increasing its surface area and enhancing its ability to adsorb impurities and contaminants. Wood GAC is widely used in various applications such as water and air purification, gas treatment, and removal of organic compounds and odors. Its natural composition and renewable source make it an environmentally friendly choice for effective filtration and purification processes.
The following is the application and parameters of wood granular activated carbons:
• organic solvent recovery;
• oil and gas recovery;
• air purification;
• water treatment;
• deodorization;
• military anti-toxic carbon for filling various filters gas masks
• carrier of desiccant in mine filter self-rescuers, poison filtration and ventilation devices;
• brewing industry, Catalysts and carriers,
• decolorization and refining of pharmaceuticals and chemicals, etc.

Wood Powder Activated Carbon
wood based powdered activated carbon is refined from fruit shells and sawdust as raw materials. It looks like a fine black powder. And It is non-toxic and tasteless. Wood-based powdered activated carbon has a large specific surface area and strong adsorption capacity, which is suitable for colour removal in sugar refining, pharmaceuticals, beverages, alcohol, etc. In the water purification industry, it is also widely used in the decolorization, refining, purification and sewage treatment of organic solvents.
The production methods of wood activated carbon powder are divided into two types: phosphoric acid production and zinc chloride production.
• Wood powder activated carbon produced by the phosphoric acid method has the characteristics of developed mesopore structure and developed specific surface area, large adsorption capacity, fast filtration speed, and does not contain zinc salts.
It is widely used in the decolorization and refining of sugar, glutamic acid and salt, lactic acid and salt, citric acid and salt, wine, condiments, animal and plant proteins, biochemical products, pharmaceutical intermediates, vitamins, antibiotics and other products in the food industry.
• Wooden powdered activated carbon produced by the zinc chloride method has the characteristics of a developed mesoporous structure, large adsorption capacity, and rapid filtration.
It is mainly suitable for decolorization, purification and deodorization of high pigment solutions such as various amino acid industries, refined sugar decolorization, MSG industry, glucose industry, starch sugar industry, chemical additives, dye intermediates, food additives, pharmaceutical preparations.
Because these processes make the mesoporous structure and specific surface area of wooden activated carbon more developed, it has many advantages:
• large adsorption capacity
• fast filtration speed
• high strength
• low ash content
• reasonable pore size distribution
The following is the wood powder activated carbon parameters:
| Item | Index | |
| A | B | |
| Iodine, mg/g ≥ | 1000 | 900 |
| Methylene blue adsorption rate,ml/0.1g mg/g ≥ | 9.0 (135) |
7.0 (105) |
| Hardness,% g/ml ≥ | 94.0 | 85.0 |
| Apparent density, g/ml | 0.45-0.55 | 0.32-.47 |
| Moisture，% ≤ | 10.0 | 10.0 |
| PH，% ≥ | 5.5-6.5 | 5.5-6.5 |
| Ash，% ≤ | 5.0 | 5.0 |
Main factors affecting activated carbon adsorption:
• The properties of the activated carbon adsorbent, the larger its surface area, the stronger the adsorption capacity; the size of the activated carbon adsorbent particles, the structure of the pores and distribution and surface chemical properties also have a great impact.• The nature of the adsorbate depends on its solubility, surface free energy, polarity, size and unsaturation of the adsorbate molecules, concentration of the adsorbent, etc.
• Based on the pH value of liquid, activated carbon generally has a higher adsorption rate in acidic solutions than in alkaline solutions. The pH value will affect the existence state and solubility of the adsorbate in water, thereby affecting the adsorption effect.
• Temperature has little effect on the adsorption of activated carbon.
• There should be a certain contact time between the activated carbon and the adsorbent, so that the adsorption is close to equilibrium and the adsorption capacity is fully utilized.
