Removal Of Heavy Metals From Wastewater By Activated Carbon With High Adsorption Capacity

Removal of heavy metals from wastewater by activated carbon with high adsorption capacity

Activated carbon, known for its porous structure and large surface area, has a remarkable ability to adsorb heavy metals.

When wastewater containing heavy metals comes into contact with activated carbon, the heavy metal ions are attracted and bound to the surface of the activated carbon through various mechanisms such as physical adsorption, chemical adsorption, and ion exchange. Physical adsorption occurs due to van der Waals forces, while chemical adsorption involves the formation of chemical bonds between the heavy metal ions and the functional groups on the activated carbon surface. Ion exchange takes place when the heavy metal ions replace other ions already adsorbed on the activated carbon.

The production base of Hong Kong Xinyue Activated Carbon Co., Ltd. is located in Datong City, Shanxi Province, China. With over 30 years of production experience, we are one of the largest coal producers in Shanxi Province. We use selected high quality Paul's weakly sticky coal raw materials from Datong, Shanxi Province. The company has an annual production capacity of 100,000 tons of coal-based activated carbon and wood-based activated carbon.
