Use Coconut Shell Charcoal and Contribute to Environment. No Green Gas Emission While Heating Compared to Coal.

Coconut shell Charcoal is obtained from coconut shell. It is used most widely as domestic and industrial fuel. It is in constant demand for the activities performed by goldsmiths and blacksmiths and in laundries. Coconut shell Charcoal is generally used in the manufacture of activated carbon. Activated Carbon obtained from coconut shell has many specific advantages as the raw material can adsorb particular molecular species. The coconut shell is directly carbonized by using traditional methods like drum method, pit method, destructive distillation etc. The coconut shell charcoal is the main raw material required for producing coconut shell activated carbon. There is a large demand for activated carbon suppliers in the global market.The coconut charcoal is produced by burning shells of fully matured coconuts in limited supply of air which is sufficient only for carbonization, but not for complete destruction of the shells. The exact output of coconut shell charcoal in the traditional pith method is approximately below 33 per cent of the weight of the original coconutshells In order to obtain good high quality charcoal, fully sun dried, clean, mature shells are used. Advancement of science and technology has paved way for many new modern methods for the production of charcoal. In the latest modern charcoal technology adopted, waste heat recovery unit, the heat generated by the process of burning coconut shells is directly used for drying coconut copra and shell charcoal and other coconut products.

Use of coconut shell charcoal and coconut shell powder in the domestic and industrial sector greatly contributes to the environment.  There is not much green gas emission while heating compared to coal. Activated carbon pellets, granular activated carbon, powder activated carbon, impregnated activated carbon andactivated carbon fibers usage should be limited to the extend without harming the environment. There are many disadvantage of coal. The burning of coal releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that causes global warming and climate change. According to a latest research study, the usage of coal in the domestic and industrial purpose increases the level of carbon dioxide in the air. The consumption of coal generates a lot of waste products, that are bottom ash, fly ash, flue gas desulfurization sludge, which also contain uranium, mercury,arsenic, thorium, and other heavy metals. Coal also creates dust nuisance in the air. It also creates respiratory problems to human beings. Coal-fired power plant releases a large emission which includes selenium, mercury, and arsenic that are really harmful to the environment and human health. Most of the coal-fired power plants which are without any effective fly ash capture are one of the largest sources of human-caused radiation exposure in the environment.
