Activated Carbon Water Filters: The Definitive Guide

Carbon filters are made from raw materials, commonly coal (often referred to as activated charcoal filters) or coconut shell. These materials are naturally high in carbon, hence why they're used to make carbon filters. The quality of the material used will greatly affect the quality of filtration – as will the material itself.

Process design of the Phola coal J preparation plant o

The design of the Phola coal preparation has its roots in the late 1980s when there was a requirement for a plant to treat 8 Mtpa coal from Ingwe's (now BECSA's) adjacent Klipspruit opencast mine at Ogies, Mpumalanga. The mine is part of the South African Witbank Coalfield and accesses the No. 2 and 4 Seams with some 5 Seam material.

How a Coal Plant Works

How a Coal Plant Works. Coal-fired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity. The steam is then cooled, condensed back into water and returned to the boiler to start the process over.
