ICC - Process Overview Image: //cdn.intratec.us/images/icc/process-overview/109-C.jpg
ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Product</h6> <p><b>Activated Carbon</b>. Activated Carbon is a solid composed mostly of carbon atoms, processed to have porous structure and a large internal surface area. Such unique characteristics confer adsorptive properties that makes Activated Carbon widely used in a range of applications.</p> <h6>Raw Materials</h6> <p><b>Coconut Shells</b>. Coconut shell – the part between the coconut flesh and coconut husk – is the strongest part covered in coconut fruit. This material is typically obtained as waste product of coconut oils and coconut flakes production. Coconut shell is widely used in handicraft and handmade decorative items. Industrially, it is used in the production of charcoal, in the production of Activated Carbon and as fuel. It is worth to highlight that the natural pore structure, low ash content and high carbon content of coconut shells make this material suitable for producing high quality Activated Carbon.</p> <b>Phosphoric Acid</b>. Phosphoric acid is one of the most important mineral acids produced – only after sulfuric acid in production volume. It is manufactured on commercial scale mainly by the digestion of phosphate rocks with sulfuric acid, in the so-called “wet-process”. Phosphoric acid is primarily used in agriculture, as both fertilizer and animal feed supplement.</p>
ICC - Process Schematic Image: //cdn.intratec.us/images/icc/process-schematics/109-C.jpg
ICC - Process Schematic Text: <p>The process under analysis comprises three major sections: (1) Activation; (2) Acid Recovery and (3) Product Refinement. </p><p>Activation. Initially, coconut shells are fed to a crusher, where the size of the shell is reduced, and then impregnated with concentrated phosphoric acid forming a paste. The paste then conveyed to a rotary kiln in which it is dried, carbonized, and activated, under an oxygen-free atmosphere. Volatile gases released during activation are used for fuel.</p><p>Acid Recovery. The product from the Activation is cooled and fed to a vacuum belt filter, where phosphoric acid is recovered by means of multi-stage counter-current washing with phosphoric acid of decreasing concentrations, with the last stage being demineralized water. The dilute phosphoric acid stream recovered is concentrated in a three-stage evaporator and recycled.</p><p>Product Refinement. Residual water content in the Activated Carbon is removed in rotary dryer. Subsequently, the Activated Carbon is cooled, ground to the desired particle size and packed in bags.</p>
ICC - Short Description: This study approaches an economic analysis of a typical chemical activation process for Powdered Activated Carbon production from coconut shell in the United States. Phosphoric acid is used as chemical activation reagent. Activation is carried out concomitantly with carbonization, in a rotary kiln.
