Spherical activated carbon can have a specific surface area of up to 500-1000m ²/g due to the fact that the inner core can be made of inorganic materials different from the spherical shell material, which is conducive to fully utilizing the material properties of spherical activated carbon. In addition, due to the excellent hydrodynamic properties of the fluid flow channels formed between spherical activated carbon, the pressure drop of the fluid passing through the activated carbon layer is small, making it particularly suitable for fixed bed gas treatment devices with high stacking heights of activated carbon in the bed.
Spherical activated carbon is a highly spherical activated carbon prepared from petroleum asphalt as raw material. In addition to the adsorption properties of activated carbon, it also has various other characteristics.
1 small particle, high filling capacity
2. High liquidity
3 high-purity, low ash powder
4. High strength and high wear resistance
5 Narrow particle size distribution
Spherical activated carbon is produced using asphalt as raw material, resulting in stable product performance. In addition, the biggest feature of SAC is the use of high-quality asphalt, whose spheroidization process does not use binders, and is made by maintaining uniform non melting and activation in a flowing state.
According to the average particle size classification, BAC is divided into four categories.
1. 0.2-0.4mm
2. 0.4-0.6mm
3. 0.6-0.9mm
4. 0.9mm and above
