Can i ask you somethig? I bought activated carbon from pharmacy and i tried this at home but it doesn't bubble at all, i have two types, one is like capsule the other is tablette ,and i put them in regular water but they just don't bubble...so are they selling us nonactivated carbon or even worse something else? Please answer

@@crowpatrick medical activated carbon has starch or sticking material in it, probably that is not letting it to bubble.

Hi Gabriel! 10µm paper filter.

Hi Anio! We used 10µm paper filter. If you use bigger granule activated carbon, coffee filter will work.

Hi Kevin! Just normal tap water.

Hi! Activated carbon bubbles due to air displacement. Yes, food coloring can also work with this demo.

@@juniormf575 what is the food coloring for and did the methylene blue actually activate the charcoal? Does that mean food coloring will activate it too?

No..

Nishtha Pathania ,: yes, actually there are few air purifiers that can filter out VOC by carbon filter. Any larger particles can be filtered via HEPA filter.

Hi Roman! Activated Carbon does the same in the video to gold in cyanide solution. In gold leaching, gold is dissolved with cyanide. Once it is dissolved you now have a gold cyanide solution. Gold in liquid form. The solution is then passed through or mixed with activated carbon. Activated Carbon adsorbs the gold. Now you have carbon that is loaded with gold. You can either burn the carbon and recover gold. Or you can have the gold undergo electrolysis and separate the gold from the carbon and reuse the carbon.

Hello Cutie Pie! Charcoal is the raw material for activated carbon. You need to subject your charcoal to about 1000 deg C and introduce steam for about 24 hrs.

Hi Pooja! Yes, activated carbon is used for removing trace colours or dyes. Also it depends on the type of dye.

Hi Simon! The bubbles are caused by the displacement of air by water in the pores of the carbon. Regular charcoal can also perform adsorption tasks but to a very very limited degree.

Thank you for the response, I tried using peanut shell charcoal yesterday and 10g was able to adsorb about 200ppb of metal ions from 1 litre of water, I suppose activated charcoal would be much more successful

@@simonbanks5012 Correct Simon. Charcoal already is adsorbent in a certain degree. But its power is multiplied by the activation process.

@@juniormf575We have been making filters similar to a bio sand filter replacing the sand with powdered charcoal which has worked well for removing metal impurities for people drinking river water contaminated with mine runoff, it's probably much higher media replacement rate than if they were using activated but in the area the filters are being used, activated carbon is too expensive

@@simonbanks5012 Charcoal will work. Activated Carbon will just perform better. You just have to change your charcoal filter more often. Or you can use a big charcoal filter. If the point of use makes using activated carbon impractical charcoal will definitely do.

Sorry Pandiyan. We only produce coconut based activated carbon. I don't see much rice husk based activated carbon.

No, it will filter out the chlorine and it can approximately adsorb equivalent of 1/3 of its mass so I guess it won't last long

@@michawolski2584 Why do I need chlorine in my pool?

If a fish can't survive in it. Then im not swimming in it lol

@mic cim i thought it's the oxygen that kills bacteria?

You just have to wash and rinse it with demineralized water.

Hi Katerina! Most activated carbon from pharmacies are in very fine powder form. Because they are too fine, the particles float on water and the air displacement happens on the surface and quickly.

Hi! It's plain tap water. The air inside the pores is displaced by the water.

You can pre wash the carbon you are using. It just might be carbon fines sticking to the walls.

Hi Anio! We produce activated carbon granules. You may contact us at info@philipscarbon.com.

I normally make activated charcoal . .if u need it

Email warumboga@gmail.com For eucalyptus activated charcoal

Hi! Its a paper filter.

@@juniormf575 Thx!

There are a lot of organic chemicals that activated carbon can adsorb. But it cannot adsorb all types of chemicals.

Lol it’s charcoal broken appart a lot so... don’t worry about it

It can last forever if stored properly. Its adsorption power will not decrease as long as its pores are not saturated with what it can catch in the open environment.

1) Carbon fiber is dangerous for the same reason asbestos fiber or any other dust can be dangerous. It can damage lung tissue, and due to constant abrasion from breathing, can cause DNA damage that can lead to cancer. Activated charcoal works similarly to a molecular sieve. It traps larger molecules (typically organic compounds) in its pores while letting smaller ones pass though. 2) Activated carbon is typically stored in a anhydrous (dry) state, so when it is placed in water, it releases its air. Charcoal still has tar and oils in it, making it hydrophobic.

Ωmega Man wow! How do you know so much about carbon?

@Sir Fa Some extrapolation from the SDS as well as general knowledge from personal use. Carbon fiber is stable when not oxidized (which causes it to heat up and burn), and causes similar symptoms to fiberglass, which is quite analogues.

Ωmega Man what is SDS?

@Sir Fa Safety Data Sheet. It has general hazard & safety information on specific products and chemicals, as well as its composition.

At the place where they SELL actual carbon pieces

Ebay

Hi Anwerino! Yes it can.

Yes, it can change the physical properties like the ones you've mentioned. The activated carbon will adsorb the impurities thereby making your wastewater pure.

I used approximately 50mL volume of very high grade activated carbon in 175ml of stale beer. Stirred, let set overnight, and once filtered, I ended up with ZERO smell or taste of beer. I presume I could have used less AC, but didn't feel compelled to repeat the experiment to find out.

Hi Liam! It depends on what is in the alcohol, how much carbon you use and filtration system design.

@@juniormf575 Clear need only alcohol mixed with water, dissolve oil shell better in water. Coconut coal, approximately 50 grams per 1 litre of vodka or whiskey for the future. Gravitational circulation solution, chilled to -25 degrees Celsius, alcohol with water through this coal within 90 minutes. These rules use the liqueur factories in Poland and in Russia. After cleaning the coal product, it must be filtered through the Silicon sand and paper filters using the filter press, or a vacuum pump and Büchner funnel.

I will put actived carbon into the wine after finished 10 L fermentation and i will filter it with coffee filter. Is it true?

It says with the subheadings, iodine and activated carbon was the first one

Yaqub Afridi wood based activated carbon.

Mayur Gami coconut activated carbon has ash between 3-5%

Hi! Activated Carbon bubbles due to the principle of air displacement. When carbon is activated pores are developed. These pores fill with air and once submerged in liquid the air is displaced by liquid.

Mask

john hernandez Yes.

Adsorption process

Yes even my filtered water has tiny particles

i guess no

Hi, I make carbon from palm kernel shell. I will like us to collaborate and see what quality we will get.

Yes, it's called water displacement. When water displaces the air inside the pores causing it to bubble.👍

And it only takes a very tiny amount of something in the water to poison.
