The role of activated carbon in the pharmaceutical industry

If the gas speed is very small, the size of the adsorber is large and uneconomical.

If the gas velocity is too large, the pressure drop will increase and the adsorption efficiency will be affected.The optimum gas velocity was determined by experiment.

The adsorption design can not pursue too high adsorption efficiency, the empty tower speed value is reduced, it will make the adsorption bed volume, the amount of adsorbent and equipment cost increased greatly;On the contrary, it is not appropriate to take too large empty tower gas speed. Although the equipment cost is low, the adsorption efficiency drops a lot, and the pressure drop of the system will rise rapidly with the increase of the empty tower speed, resulting in excessive power consumption. Therefore, due to the selection of the appropriate air speed of the empty tower, the most suitable air speed of the empty tower is 0.8~1.2m/s"21, according to the empirical conclusion, this design determines

Air velocity of empty tower :U= 1.0m /s.Original conditions:Treatment air volume :Q=20000 m'h, design temperature is 35° C, pressure is 1.01325×103Pa Since the proportion of air in exhaust gas is far greater than that of pollutants, the properties of exhaust gas can be approximately viewed as the thermophysical properties of dry air. Please refer to Appendix 9 of Principles of Chemistry to obtain the following data:Properties of air mixture:Fluid density P;=1.147kg/ m', viscosity u,= 1.94×10-5 Pa.S, specific heat capacity C,=1.005kJ/(kg."C) coal-based activated carbon, also known as coal-based activated carbon.granular activated charcoal coconut 

It is a general term for a large class of activated carbon products made of various raw coal through different processes.Coal-based activated carbon can be divided into molding carbon and raw coal direct crushing carbon according to the different manufacturing process.granular activated charcoal coconut 

The former and can be further subdivided into wet molding charcoal (such as tar, papermaking black liquor, such as starch paste liquid adhesive manufacturing columnar, ball charcoal, honeycomb carbon, etc.) and dry molding charcoal (such as join solid bitumen, starch, such as tree powder as adhesive used for Mao briquette made of molding process, tabletting, pelleting and broken charcoal or rules of pelleting shape activated carbon).
