Coconut Shell Charcoal

Coconut Shell Charcoal is carbon produced by strongly heating coconut shell in minimal oxygen which removes water and volatile constituents. Coconut shell charcoal burns at a higher temperature than wood, it does not emit smoke, it is hard to find a visible flame and coconut shell charcoal releases only heat energy. Coconut shell charcoal burns for a longer duration and has high calorific value. Coconut Shell Charcoal is natural and is renewable.

It can be used as an alternate fuel for cooking gas. (LPG)

Charcoal can be used as a filter, catalyst or as an adsorbent.

The charcoal has a high adsorption capacity for gases and colouring matter and can therefore be used as a refining agent both as a deodorizer and as a decolourizer. Well powdered shell charcoal finds limited used as a dentifrice. The charcoal is used by goldsmiths in melting gold and silver and for other metal works.

The commercial value of shell charcoal lies in its use as the primary raw material for the production of activated carbon. It also finds very good demand as an industrial fuel to substitute furnace oil.
