YK-Acid Washed Coconut Shell Pellet Activated Carbon for Condensate

YK-AC is a premium acid-washed coconut shell pellet activated carbon engineered for the most demanding water treatment applications. The acid washing process removes soluble minerals and ash, delivering ultra-high purity for condensate and semiconductor-grade water systems.

Product Overview

YK-AC pellet activated carbon begins with carefully selected coconut shell raw material, carbonized and steam-activated to create high-purity granular carbon. Post-activation acid washing removes residual ash and water-soluble minerals, achieving exceptionally low extractable levels. The pellet form provides high mechanical strength and low pressure drop in deep-bed applications. Designed specifically for power plant condensate polishing, semiconductor ultra-pure water systems, and critical process water treatment where silica and metal ion control are essential.

Technical Advantages

Ultra-High Purity & Superior Adsorption Kinetics

Sourced from select Southeast Asian coconut shells, our premium coconut shell activated carbon features micropore-dominant structures with iodine values reaching 1000-1500 mg/g.

The low ash content (<3%) and exceptional purity make it the preferred choice for semiconductor ultra-pure water systems, gold recovery (CIP/CIL/CIC processes), and food-grade decolorization.

High mechanical strength (>95%) ensures minimal attrition during backwashing, while the developed surface area (1000-1500 m²/g) provides rapid adsorption kinetics. Available in granular, columnar (PLC), and silver-impregnated (PSD-Ag+) variants for antimicrobial water treatment applications.

FAQ

Q1: Why is acid washing necessary for condensate applications?

A: Acid washing removes water-soluble minerals and residual ash that could leach into high-purity water systems, preventing contamination of critical process streams.

Q2: What purity levels does YK-AC achieve?

A: YK-AC typically achieves <50 ppb total extractables and <3% ash content, meeting stringent semiconductor and power industry specifications.

Q3: Is YK-AC compatible with mixed-bed ion exchange systems?

A: Yes, YK-AC is specifically designed for use upstream of or in combination with mixed-bed polishers in condensate treatment trains.

Q4: What is the recommended bed depth?

A: Typical design bed depths range from 1.5-2.5 meters depending on flow rate and organic loading. Our engineers can assist with system design.

Q5: Can YK-AC be used in food applications?

A: While YK-AC meets high purity standards, our NSF-certified coconut shell products are recommended for direct food contact applications.
