I remember when I first came into contact with activated carbon or bought a new car, the smell on the car was very strong. I bought the first bag of activated carbon online. From this we can know that activated carbon is often used in our life. From a professional point of view, activated carbon is amorphous carbon obtained through processing. It has a large specific surface area and has good adsorption capacity for inorganic or organic substances and colloidal particles in gas and solution. Therefore, it is widely used in sewage treatment, air pollution prevention, chemical industry, food processing and other fields.
1. The adsorption of activated carbon is closely related to the pore size distribution of various carbon types. The pore distribution and surface area of different types of activated carbon are different, so different types of activated carbon have a significant impact on its saturation.
2. When activated carbon is used in the environment with too much or too frequent harmful substances, the faster the activated carbon will be saturated.
3. Storage method. The better the activated carbon is stored, the longer the service time can be.
To sum up, it is difficult for us to accurately judge when the saturated adsorption value of a specific type of activated carbon can be reached, which can only be estimated in combination with the type, use environment and so on. However, there is a standard that once the treatment effect of activated carbon is significantly reduced, it means that the activated carbon is close to saturation, and we should replace the activated carbon in time
