PRODUCTION OF MULTIFUNCTIONAL GRANULAR MEDIUM BY PARTIAL ACTIVATION OF PARTIALLY DECOMPOSED ORGANIC MATTER

摘要

A process for the production of low-temperature activated or partially activated partially decomposed organic matter for use as an ion-exchange medium comprising the steps of granulating partially decomposed moisture-bearing organic matter, drying the granules and activating the granules at a temperature of about 175-520 °C, wherein the granule has a hardness and cation-exchange capacity suitable for a particular application desired.
