Activated Carbon from Rice Husk/Coconut Shell - Manufacturing Plant, Detailed Project Report, Profile, Business Plan, Industry Trends, Market Research, Survey, Manufacturing Process, Machinery, Raw Materials, Feasibility Study, Investment Opportunities
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The term activated carbon, active carbon or active charcoal is usually applied to amorphous carbons possessing higher absorption capacities than wood or animal charcoal. Industrial activated carbon in the forms of pellets, granules or fine powders, and with many other industrial applications is now in the market under different trade names.
There has been a considerable amount of laboratory and pilot plant research in India on the production of active carbons. At present in India there are about 25 to 30 units, in which, four units are in Gujarat. M/s Calcutta wood Distillation Co., were producing activated carbon during the war period by the carbonization of hardwood, and activation by dry steam and compressed air.
Due to the expansion of pharmaceutical and vegetable oil industry the demand of activated carbon is expected to rise sharply in coming years. And it has bright future not only in foreign but in India also.
