DEVELOPING APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY AND ESTABLISHING A PLANT FOR ACTIVATED CARBON PRODUCTION FROM COCONUT SHELLS FOR COMMUNITY BASED ORGANISATIONS

Develop an up-scaled improved plant appropriate for community level production of charcoal and activated carbon from coconut shell by designing, fabricating and installing a continuous vertical carbonizer for pollution-free production of charcoal and a horizontal Rotary Fluidized Bed Reactor (RFBR) charcoal activation plant for demonstration and commercialization of the concept of community level production of charcoal and activated carbon for industrial use
