[0048] 9) then, the activated material is screened again, the oversize is a columnar activated carbon, and the undersize is ground to obtain a powdery activated carbon.

[0049] In an embodiment of the application, in step 1), the raw material is at least one of fruit shells, coconut shells and palm shells.

[0050] In an embodiment of the application, the temperature of primary carbonization is 630-670 DEG C, the time of primary carbonization is 0.3-1 hour, the oxygen concentration in the rotary carbonization furnace is less than 5%, and the rotary carbonization furnace is operated under micro-negative pressure, and the negative pressure is controlled to be between-50 Pa and-100 Pa.

[0051] In an embodiment of the application, the particle size of the pitch is 80-90 mesh, and the mass ratio of the primary carbonization material to the pitch is (75-80):(20-25).

[0052] In an embodiment of the application, the added mass of the adhesive accounts for 8-10% of the mass of the carbonization material undersize.

[0053] The method for preparing the adhesive is mixing 100 wt% of the pregelatinized starch with 8 wt% of 10 million molecular weight polyacrylamide;

[0054] The kneading is mixed into a paste.

[0055] In an embodiment of the present application, the extrusion is cylindrical with a diameter of 3-6 mm.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present application, the drying condition is 110-130°C, the drying time is 1-2 hours, and the drying is performed until the water content is 4-6 wt%.

[0057] In an embodiment of the present application, the temperature for the secondary carbonization is 600-650°C, the time for the secondary carbonization is 0.4-0.5 hours, the oxygen concentration in the rotary carbonization furnace is less than 5%, and the rotary carbonization furnace is operated under a micro-negative pressure with the negative pressure controlled between -50 Pa and -100 Pa.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, the activation temperature is 800-900°C, the activation time is 30-60 min, and the activation is performed by using steam as the activator.

[0059] The reason why the proportion of the mesopores in the total specific surface area of the activated carbon in the present application is increased from not more than 5% to 8-15% and the reason why the proportion of the macropores in the total specific surface area is increased from not more than 1% to 4-8% are as follows:

[0060] The oxygen-containing gas such as steam, flue gas (main component: CO2) or mixed gas thereof is used as the activator, and the oxidation-reduction reaction is performed at a high temperature to generate carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen and other hydrocarbon gases, and the gasification reaction (loss on ignition) of carbon is performed to form pores in the carbon particles, which is also the principle for forming mesopores and macropores. The main chemical reaction formulae are as follows:

[0061] C + 2H2O = 2H2 + CO2;

[0062] C + H2O = H2 + CO;

[0063] CO2 + C = 2CO;

[0064] The above three chemical reactions are endothermic reactions, that is, the temperature of the activation reaction zone of the activation furnace will gradually decrease with the progress of the activation reaction. If the temperature of the activation zone is lower than 800°C, the above activation reaction cannot be normally performed. Therefore, part of the air and the coal gas generated by the activation are simultaneously introduced into the activation reaction zone of the activation furnace to combust and supplement the heat, or an external heat source is added to ensure the activation temperature of the activation reaction zone of the activation furnace.

[0065] The activation reaction belongs to a plurality of reactions of a gas-solid phase system. The activation process includes physical and chemical processes. The whole process includes diffusion of the activation agent in the gas phase to the outer surface of the carbonized material, diffusion of the activation agent to the inner surface of the carbonized material, adsorption of the activation agent by the inner and outer surfaces of the carbonized material, reaction of the surface of the carbonized material to generate an intermediate product (a surface complex), decomposition of the intermediate product into a reaction product, desorption of the reaction product, diffusion of the desorbed reaction product from the inner surface to the outer surface of the carbonized material, and the like;

[0066] The activation reaction reaches the purpose of activation and pore formation through the following three stages:

[0067] 1. Opening of the pores formed during carbonization but blocked by disordered carbon atoms and heteroatoms, that is, at high temperatures, the activation gas first reacts with the disordered carbon atoms and heteroatoms;

[0068] 2. The opened pores are continuously expanded, connected and developed in depth. The carbon atoms at the edges of the pores have an unsaturated structure and are easy to react with the activation gas, thereby causing the pores to continuously expand and develop in depth;

[0069] 3. Formation of new pores. With the continuous activation reaction, new unsaturated carbon atoms or active points are exposed on the surface of the carbonized material. These new active points can then react with other molecules of the activation gas, and the non-uniform combustion on the surface of the carbonized material continuously leads to the formation of new pores.

[0070] Reasons and working principles of adding pitch in the present application:

[0071] Providing a carbon source: After carbonization at high temperature, the carbon elements in pitch form the basic framework of activated carbon, providing a solid foundation for the subsequent activation process. This framework structure not only ensures the stability and mechanical strength of activated carbon, but also provides abundant adsorption sites, enabling activated carbon to efficiently adsorb various harmful substances;

[0072] Binder: Pitch plays the role of a binder in the preparation of activated carbon. Certain components in pitch can form a binding bridge at high temperatures, binding activated carbon particles together to form blocky or granular products with certain mechanical strength. This binding effect not only improves the formability of activated carbon, but also enhances its durability and stability in actual applications;

[0073] Pore formation and pore structure adjustment: The gases and tar produced during the pyrolysis of pitch form new pores, thereby increasing the specific surface area of activated carbon. By controlling the amount of pitch added and the pyrolysis conditions, the pore structure and distribution of activated carbon can be finely adjusted, optimizing its adsorption and catalytic properties;

[0074] Improve mechanical strength and thermal stability: asphalt can form a strong cohesive bridge at high temperature, so that the connection between activated carbon particles is more closely, thereby improving its compression and wear resistance, in addition, some components in asphalt also have high thermal stability, can maintain its basic physical and chemical properties within a certain temperature range, prolong the service life of activated carbon.

[0075] The primary carbonization and secondary carbonization in the application are:

[0076] The purpose of primary carbonization is to pyrolyze non-carbon components and impurities in the raw material (such as moisture, impurities), so as to obtain carbonized material with higher carbon content, and the raw material is fruit shell, coconut shell, etc.

[0077] The purpose of secondary carbonization is that after the first carbonization, a lot of other auxiliary materials, such as asphalt, are added in the granulation process, and these asphalt and other auxiliary materials need to be carbonized.

[0078] The difference between the two carbonizations is that the primary carbonization is for the raw material, and the secondary carbonization is for the auxiliary material.

[0079] In the application, kneading is mixing, which is to uniformly mix the raw material and auxiliary material.

[0080] In the application, extrusion molding is to increase the strength of the formed activated carbon. The normal extrusion pressure is maintained at 200-240 kg / cm 2 .

[0081] In the application, drying is to dry the moisture in time, so that the formed activated carbon has sufficient strength.

[0082] In the application, activation is the reaction of water vapor with carbonized material at high temperature to generate hydrogen and carbon monoxide, etc. The escape of these gases promotes the expansion and connection of the internal pores of the carbonized material, forming abundant large and medium pore structures.

[0083] The methods and devices not described in detail in the application are all prior art and will not be described again.

[0084] In order to better understand the application, the following examples are used to further specifically illustrate the application, but it should not be understood as limiting the application.
