Bamboo charcoal and Activated carbon They are often used in different occasions, and their functions are somewhat consistent. Many people are in difficulty in choosing. Next, Jiayuan activated carbon will share the difference between bamboo charcoal and ordinary activated carbon,

Let us better distinguish: different processing technologies

Bamboo charcoal only goes through carbonization stage, with low technical content. In addition to carbonization process, activated carbon also goes through activation, pickling and drying stages. Activated carbon is higher than bamboo charcoal processing process;

Different structures

The pore diameter of bamboo charcoal is large, and the main adsorption diameter is about 200 nm nano unit;

Activated carbon is mainly microporous, which can absorb smaller harmful substances with high adsorption rate;

Different specific surface areas

Specific surface area refers to the surface area per unit mass. The specific surface area of bamboo charcoal ranges from 150 ㎡/g to 350 ㎡/g; The activated carbon can reach 900m2/g or even more than 2000m2/g.

Large difference in hardness:

Bamboo charcoal has light specific gravity and is fragile. Activated carbon has high hardness and high wear resistance;

Price difference

Bamboo charcoal only needs one carbonization process, and activated charcoal also needs an activation process. Its cost is much higher than bamboo charcoal, about 3-5 times of bamboo charcoal. Therefore, the price of the product is 3~5 times that of bamboo charcoal.
