Activated carbon coco is made from coconut shells charcoal and is also known as activated charcoal. The Philippines became the major exporter of this product in Japan when the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant disaster happened in March 2011. The Japanese used the activated carbon coco to minimize the nuclear radiation in the plantation. China, Korea and other European countries are also importers of the activated carbon coco to be used in particular applications. Research says that activated carbon as a powerful adsorbent to remove contaminants or undesirable components from liquids and gases plays an increasing role in pollution control and recovery efforts. Activated carbon in environmental applications helps improve air quality and it prevents harmful organic or inorganic components from ending up in surface or drinking water, both municipal and industrial wastewater treatment on a large scale. Being available in variety of forms and grades, activated carbon is also frequently used in General Filtration, Water Purification, Oil and Air Filtration, pharmaceutical and medical products, Gold recovery, food and beverage production, and many more. Philippine Island is very abundant of its natural and renewable resources including coconut trees. Coconut tree as a tree of life has variety and can also grow in other tropical countries like Indonesia, Thailand, India and Sri Lanka but coconut shells from Philippines are different and thicker compared to other countries’ due to its high mineral content. Organic is very slow to biodegrade due to the presence of high concentrations of lignocelluloses in them, suitable for raw material for premium activated carbon granules. OUR VISION:
To create a true sustainability that will preserve and protect the planet and ultimately enhance the living systems. OUR MISSION:
To provide better livelihood to the poor coconut farmers from most neglected communities in the Philippines. To maximize our natural resources, “The Tree of Life” for green technology.
