The coconut shell is converted into shell charcoal by carbonization process which is usually carried out in mud-pits, brick
kilns and metallic portable kilns. The coconut shell charcoal is activated by reaction with
steam at a temperature bewteen 900°C to 1100°C under controlled atmosphere in a rotary kiln. The
reaction between steam and charcoal takes place at the internal surface area, creating more
sites for adsorption.

A Plant with a production capacity of 10 Tons/day (3000 Tons per annum, based on 300 working days at single shift) is proposed in the report.

Land: Around 1 acre of dry land is required.
