A three-dimensional activation network is formed by the gas (water vapor / CO2) (activating gas (water vapor / CO2) is injected into the carrier activated carbon raw material from three directions), which increases the contact rate between the carrier activated carbon raw material and the activation gas (water vapor / CO2), thereby improving the activation efficiency and ensuring the activation effect. The bottom of the activation chamber is equipped with a heating element.

[0013] 2. A zoned temperature control method is adopted, which sequentially activates the carrier activated carbon raw material through primary, secondary and tertiary activation. This multi-stage gradient activation treatment not only ensures precise temperature control (temperature fluctuations within ±5 degrees Celsius are normal), but also results in high uniformity of micropore development and low energy consumption.
[0014] 3. A D-type gearbox is installed at the motor output end. Utilizing the gearbox's high torque capacity, the output torque is increased by raising the reduction ratio, thus reducing the input torque requirement and lowering the motor's output power, achieving energy savings.
