Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of activated carbon production, in particular to a device and method for deep purification and rinsing of powdery activated carbon. BACKGROUND

[0002] Activated carbon is a multifunctional carbon material widely used in various industrial fields. Due to its excellent adsorption performance, it is widely used in many fields, including but not limited to water treatment, waste gas treatment, food industry, pharmaceutical industry, and other fields. Powdery activated carbon is a conventional product form. In the purification of activated carbon materials, especially deep purification, the purification efficiency of powdery activated carbon is much higher than that of granular activated carbon. However, due to its ultra-fine powdery form, the operation is difficult during chemical purification, especially in the aspect of filtration. Some patents propose using plate and frame filter to perform chemical purification and rinsing. Although the filtration problem is improved during rinsing, the filtration process is carried out in each plate and frame. During the filtration process, dozens of plate and frame are operated, which is troublesome and complicated in terms of unloading, filter cloth replacement and cleaning. In addition, plate and frame filtration adopts pressure filtration, which is prone to overpressure leakage. In order to solve the above problems, the present application relates to a rinsing method and device suitable for powdery activated carbon, which is simple to operate, has high product yield and good purification and rinsing effect.
