The invention discloses a method for preparing
activated carbon by using waste tire
pyrolytic carbon black, which comprises the following steps of: selectively and dynamically screening and removing magnetic impurities, namely dynamically screening a pyrolytic product through an
airflow grading device, separating out high-purity
carbon black particles with the particle size of less than 10 microns, and removing
metal impurities and residual steel wires by using a
magnetic separation technology to obtain the
activated carbon. And the purity of the
carbon black reaches 95% or above. Therefore, the pore structure is optimized through combination of a wet method and high-temperature activation, the
pore distribution is further maintained, regulated and controlled through
freeze drying and
solvent heat treatment, the specific surface area of the finally prepared
activated carbon reaches 1500-2000 m < 2 > / g, and the pore volume
retention rate reaches 90% or above; the technology not only effectively solves the problems of insufficient
carbon black purity, unstable pore structure and
high energy consumption in the prior art, but also remarkably improves the adsorption performance and
chemical stability, so that the carbon black is widely applied to the fields of
water treatment, gas adsorption, catalyst carriers and the like, and has the outstanding advantages of high efficiency, low consumption and
environmental protection.
