From Waste Coconut Shell to Nanopores: A Four-Step Precision Activation Process

1. Deep-Sea Grade Raw Material Selection

Traceability Control: Only virgin shells from Philippine century-old coconut trees (shell thickness ≥ 3mm, carbon density 0.62g/cm³) are purchased. The sunlight exposure and carbon content of each batch are tracked through blockchain.

Ultra-Clean Pretreatment: High-pressure water jet cutting and plasma impurity removal (organic residue < 50ppm) lay the foundation for molecular-level purity for activation. 2. Gradient Temperature Carbonization

Anoxic staged calcination: 450°C debinding → 600°C dehydrogenation → 750°C graphitization, achieving a volatile matter removal rate >98% and increasing the carbon skeleton density to 0.48g/cm³.

Real-time thermal imaging monitoring: The temperature difference within the furnace is ≤±5°C, preventing micropore collapse caused by localized overburning.

3. Ultra-high Temperature Steam Activation

Molecular etching technology: Directed pore expansion using 1050°C superheated steam (industry standard 800-1000°C), allowing precise control of the mesopore fraction to 65%±2% (accommodating contaminant molecules 0.5-2nm).

3D pore modeling: Each batch of carbon material is accompanied by a Micro-CT scan report, with a strictly controlled surface area of ​​1500±30m²/g (BET method). 4. Titanium Alloy-Grade Structural Reinforcement

Nano-crystallization Treatment: Surface deposition of a silicon carbide coating increases the ball disc hardness to 98.5% (drum loss <0.8%), and allows it to withstand 30 impacts per minute in a CIP tank.

Intelligent Grading System: Laser Particle Sizer + AI Sorting, achieving a 6×12 mesh particle uniformity deviation of ≤±2%.

Why do Top 500 Global Companies Select Kelin Steam Activation Process?

Testimonials from Industry Disruptors

“At a high-arsenic gold mine in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kelin’s Fe³⁺-MnO₂ dual-loaded carbon reduced cyanide consumption by 40%, resulting in an annual efficiency increase of $2.7M. Their engineers even stayed on-site to optimize the CIP tank flow pattern—they’re more than just a supplier, they’re a technical partner!” —CIL Project Director, Katanga Mining
