Why choose binchotan active charcoal?

Effective and Natural Purification Binchotan active charcoal purifies water by adsorption, capturing impurities on its porous surface. It effectively removes chlorine, heavy metals and chemicals, while alkalising the water and releasing beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium.

An Improved Taste and Smell Say goodbye to the unpleasant taste and smell of tap water. Binchotan improves the quality of your water, making it more enjoyable to drink.

Economical and Durable Use an active charcoal stick for 6 months, thus reducing your spending on expensive water filters and plastic bottles.

A Gesture for the Planet By opting for active charcoal, you reduce your consumption of single-use plastic, thus contributing to the preservation of the environment.

Health Benefits Enriched with essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron, your water becomes healthier and beneficial for your body.

What active charcoal removes from your water

• Chlorine: Reduces the rate, taste and smell of chlorine.
• Heavy Metals: Adsorbs lead, mercury, and copper.
• Chemicals: Removes pesticides, herbicides and other chemical substances.
• Organic Impurities: Retains unwanted organic matter.
• Micro-plastics: Captures micro-plastics for cleaner water.

Recycling active charcoal after 6 months

Don't throw away your binchotan stick after use! Here are some ideas for recycling it:

• Natural Deodorant: Place it in your shoes, refrigerator, or cabinets.
• Moisture Absorber: Ideal in humid spaces.
• Plant Fertilization: Break it into small pieces and add it to your soil.
• Composting: Enrich your compost to improve water retention.

Why is a Binchotan Active Charcoal that Floats in Water of Poor Quality?

A good quality binchotan active charcoal is dense and naturally sinks to the bottom of the water. If the stick floats, this may indicate lower quality manufacturing, with insufficient porous structure to ensure effective adsorption of impurities. A poor quality binchotan will have reduced performance in terms of water purification, thus compromising the expected benefits. Always choose authentic and high-quality binchotan to ensure optimal purification of your water.

Steps for Using and Recycling a Binchotan Active Charcoal

Usage Steps

1. Initial Preparation

• Rinse: Rinse the Binchotan charcoal under running water to remove dust and residues.

Activation and Sterilization: Boil the charcoal for about 10 minutes to activate and sterilize it. Daily Use Placement: Place the Binchotan charcoal in a carafe, bottle or water tank. Use a Woody Binchotan charcoal for 1.5 liters of water. Purification: Let the charcoal act for at least 6 to 8 hours (ideally overnight) to purify the water. Maintenance: Rinse the charcoal every 2 to 4 weeks and boil it for 10 minutes to regenerate and maintain its effectiveness. Lifespan Continuous Use: A Binchotan charcoal can be used for about 6 months before needing replacement. End of Life: When the charcoal begins to lose its effectiveness (the water is no longer as purified), it's time to recycle it. Lifespan Filtration Capacity: Each charcoal stick purifies up to 1.5l of water and you can alternate up to 3 cycles of 8h per charcoal per day; simply put your purified water in another container after 8 hours and put more water on the charcoal for another filtration cycle and so on. So you can filter up to 4.5 liters of water per day and per charcoal and this for 6 months for a maximum total of 810 liters Recycling Steps 1. Deodorant: Use the old Binchotan charcoal to absorb odors in the refrigerator, shoes or closets. 2. Moisture Absorbent: Place the charcoal in damp places to absorb excess moisture. 3. Plant Fertilizer: Crush the old charcoal and mix it with potting soil to improve soil quality and water retention. 4. Composting: Add the used Binchotan charcoal to the compost. It improves aeration and compost structure, promoting faster decomposition. Discover the exceptional properties of Tristaniopsis Obovata for the production of high quality binchotan active charcoal Tristaniopsis obovata, or Pelawan, stands out not only for its high density and durability, but also for its unique properties that make it an ideal material for the production of high quality active charcoal. Why is Tristaniopsis Obovata ideal for active charcoal? 1. High Density: Tristaniopsis obovata has a density ranging from 800 to 1,000 kg/m³. This high density means that the wood is very compact, with a low natural porosity. This allows the creation of an active charcoal with a highly developed micro-porous structure, offering an exceptional adsorption surface to capture impurities and contaminants. 2. Durability and Resistance: Thanks to its natural resistance to termites and other decomposing agents, the active charcoal made from Tristaniopsis obovata is particularly durable. This durability translates into increased longevity of active charcoal filters, thus reducing the frequency of replacement and associated costs. 3. Material Purity: Tristaniopsis obovata wood is naturally pure and does not contain unwanted additives or chemical residues. When transformed into activated carbon, it offers a water filtration solution that does not release harmful substances, ensuring safe and effective water purification. 4. Microporous Structure: The process of making activated carbon from Tristaniopsis obovata, involving high-temperature combustion followed by rapid cooling, creates an ideal microporous structure. These micropores increase the available surface area for adsorbing contaminants such as PFAS, chlorine, heavy metals, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making drinking water purer and healthier. Concrete Benefits of Activated Carbon from Tristaniopsis Obovata - Filtration Efficiency: Elimination of up to 90% of PFAS and other contaminants. - Improved Water Quality: Alkalization of water and release of beneficial minerals. - Environmental Sustainability: Reduction of plastic consumption thanks to natural and durable filtration.

Their persistence in the environment and their ability to accumulate in living organisms pose serious dangers: For Human Health: Endocrine Problems: PFAS disrupt the hormonal system, causing reproductive and developmental disorders. Cancer Risk: Exposure to certain PFAS is linked to an increased risk of liver, kidney, and testicular cancers. Weakening of the Immune System: PFAS can decrease the immune response, making the body more vulnerable to infections and vaccines. High Cholesterol: They increase blood cholesterol levels, a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. For the Environment: Persistent Contamination: PFAS are extremely resistant to degradation, persisting in soils and water for decades. Bioaccumulation: They accumulate in the tissues of living organisms, disrupting food chains and affecting fauna and flora. Extent of PFAS Pollution in Europe PFAS pollution is a growing concern in Europe. These substances have been detected in groundwater, surface water, and even in drinking water. The European Union is taking steps to limit the levels of PFAS in drinking water and reduce existing contamination. Effectiveness of Activated Carbon Filtration against PFAS Activated carbon is a proven solution for reducing PFAS in drinking water. Benefits of Binchotan Activated Carbon: Advanced Porous Structure: Superior Adsorption Capacity: Woody's Binchotan, made from dense wood, has a microporous structure that effectively adsorbs contaminants, including PFAS. Proven Performance: Scientific Studies: Research shows that activated carbon filters can remove up to 90% of PFAS from drinking water. The exact efficiency depends on the size of the PFAS molecules, the type of activated carbon used, and the filtration conditions. Why choose Woody's Binchotan Activated Carbon?
