Safety Problems in Activated Carbon Application

(1) On the fire.

1) activated carbon is not included in the dangerous category, but flammable. After the fire does not occur with flame burning, but smoldering.

2) activated carbon does not spontaneous combustion, in the air may be on fire, and gasoline, diesel and other mixed, can cause combustion.

3) activated carbon combustion if the lack of ventilation, will produce toxic carbon monoxide.

(2) on storage.

1) Activated carbon must be stored in buildings that are as fireproof as possible.

2) Activated carbon can not be mixed with oxidant.

3) Storage: Open flame, spark and smoking are prohibited.

(3) on the use.

1) to use containing the adsorption of catalytic decomposition or polymerization of activated carbon.

2) to be expected in the adsorption or desorption process of activated carbon decomposition or polymerization caused by the possibility of corrosion and fever. Use activated carbon, the activated carbon should be charged with water or the use of special non-dust feeding device.
