Activated coconut shell carbon is available in many forms
and is capable of absorbing gases, vapor and solids fast in many
processes.Coconut shell carbon is made available in different forms according
to the processes in which it is put to use. Boyce carbon comes in powder,
pellet and granular shapes. It has very important chemical properties and is
used in many industries, including the steel industry requiring absorption of
some of the gases and vapours in the process of purification. Boyce coconut
shell carbon is sulphur free and is available in various forms. Sulphur free
boyce carbon is used extensively forcarbon pick up in factories where it is
used as raw material for activated carbon.
The uses of different types of carbon are as follows:-
Powder form of carbon
Activated carbon in powder form is used for purifying the
liquids by mixing the carbon to the liquid and filtered.
Granulated activated carbon
Granulated activated carbon finds its use in gas
purification or liquids in filters etc. It is also used in oil refining,
chemical and pharmaceutical industry for depolarization purposes.
Coconut shell charcoal is cost effective and an
environmental friendly product from Boyce Carbon and is put to various uses in
many types of industries including steel industry. It is reported that in the
iron and steel industry, coal accounts for nearly 60% of the carbon
emissionsand electricity and the use of gas accounts for 35% of carbon
emission. The Boyce carbon is used in steel industry more for production of
steel rather than using it as a fuel. The coconut shell activated carbon is
widely used and is considered as a substitute for other forms of carbon such as
coal for liquid and vapor based applications.
Steel is made up of an alloy of iron and the content which
varies from 0.2% and 2.1% by weight. It differs according to the grade of the
steel. Carbon is a cost-effective material used for alloying iron. The carbon
acts as an agent which hardens and prevents the dislocations in the atoms of
iron. The Boyce carbon maintains the qualities viz. the, hardness, tensile
strength and ductility of the steel produced. The mixture of carbon and iron
used in manufacturing of steel varies in proportion to provide varied grades of
steel products. The cast iron has higher carbon content and has a lower melting
point and cast ability. Steel has more rust-resistance and good weld ability.
He content of carbon is the deciding factor in steel making furnace operation
and the correct determination of carbon will save in fuel as well as time which
cut production costs.
