1、Designation: D 2854 09Standard Test Method forApparent Density of Activated Carbon1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 2854; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in p

2、arentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the appar-ent densit

3、y of granular activated carbon. For purposes of thistest method, granular activated carbon is defined as a minimumof 90 % being larger than 80 mesh.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not p

6、metricApparatus3. Summary of Test Method3.1 Apparent density (bulk density) is determined on agranular sample by measuring the volume packed by a free fallfrom a vibrating feeder into an appropriately sized graduatedcylinder and determining the mass of the known volume. Othermethods for determining

7、apparent density of granular orpowdered materials exist. These may involve vibration ortapping of the receiving vessel either while it is being filled orafterwards. Application of these methods to granular activatedcarbon may give packed density values that differ from thosedetermined by this test m

8、ethod.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method provides a method for determining thepacked density of a bed of granular activated carbon. Deter-mination of the packed density is essential when designingvessels to hold the material and for ordering purposes whenprocuring materials to fill existing

The inside diameter of the cylinder shall be at least 10times the mean particle diameter (MPD) as determined by TestMethod D 2862.6.2 If desired, the graduated cylin

Carefully place the sample ofactivated carbon into the reservoir funnel so that the materialdoes not prematurely flow into the graduated cylinde

Adjust the heightof the reservoir funnel above the vibrator trough so that a freeflow of material is obtained. The drawing in Fig. 1
