Why choose binchotan activated charcoal?

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

Improved Taste and Smell Say goodbye to the unpleasant taste and smell of tap water. The binchotan improves the quality of your water, making it more pleasant to drink.

Economical and Durable Use an activated charcoal stick for 6 months, thereby reducing your expenses on expensive water filters and plastic bottles.

A Gesture for the Planet By opting for activated 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 activated 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.

Recycle the activated charcoal after 6 months

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

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

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

A good quality binchotan activated charcoal is dense and naturally sinks to the bottom of the water. If the stick floats, it may indicate inferior manufacturing, with an 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 an authentic and high-quality binchotan to ensure optimal purification of your water.

Steps for Using and Recycling a Binchotan Activated Charcoal

Usage Steps

1. Initial Preparation

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

• 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, a bottle or a water container. Use one Woody Binchotan charcoal for 1.5 liters of water.

• Purification : Let the charcoal act for at least 6 to 8 hours (ideally all night) to purify the water.

• Maintenance : Rinse the charcoal every 2 to 4 weeks and boil it for 10 minutes to regenerate it and maintain its effectiveness.

Lifespan

• Continuous Use : A Binchotan charcoal can be used for about 6 months before needing to be replaced.

• End of Life : When the charcoal begins to lose its effectiveness (the water is no longer as purified), it is 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 8 hours per charcoal per day; just put after 8 hours your purified water in another container and put 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. Fertilizer for Plants : 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 compost. It improves aeration and compost structure, promoting faster decomposition.

Discover the exceptional properties of Tristaniopsis Obovata for the manufacture of high-quality Binchotan activated charcoal

The 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 manufacture of high-quality activated charcoal.

Why is Tristaniopsis Obovata ideal for activated charcoal?

1. High Density : The Tristaniopsis obovata has a density ranging from 800 to 1,000 kg/m³. This high density means that the wood is very compact, with low natural porosity. This allows for the creation of an activated 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, activated charcoal made from Tristaniopsis obovata is particularly durable. This durability translates into increased longevity of activated charcoal filters, thus reducing the frequency of replacement and associated costs. 3. Purity of the Material: The wood of Tristaniopsis obovata is naturally pure and does not contain any additives or unwanted chemical residues. When transformed into activated charcoal, it provides a water filtration solution that does not release harmful substances, ensuring safe and effective water purification. 4. Microporous Structure: The process of making activated charcoal from Tristaniopsis obovata, involving high-temperature combustion followed by rapid cooling, creates an ideal micro-porous structure. These micro-pores 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 Advantages of Activated Charcoal in Tristaniopsis Obovata - Filtration Efficiency: Elimination of up to 90% of PFAS and other contaminants. - Improvement in Water Quality: Alkalization of water and release of beneficial minerals. - Environmental Durability: Reduction in plastic consumption due 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 the level of blood cholesterol, a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. For the Environment: - Persistent Contamination: PFAS are extremely resistant to degradation, persisting in soils and waters for decades. - Bioaccumulation: They accumulate in the tissues of living organisms, disrupting food chains and affecting wildlife 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 PFAS levels in drinking water and reduce existing contamination. Efficacy of Activated Charcoal Filtration against PFAS Activated charcoal is a proven solution to reduce PFAS in drinking water. Advantages of Binchotan Activated Charcoal: Advanced Porous Structure: Superior Adsorption Capacity: The Woody Binchotan, made from dense wood, has a micro-porous structure that effectively adsorbs contaminants, including PFAS. Proven Performance: Scientific Studies: Research shows that activated charcoal filters can remove up to 90% of PFAS from drinking water. The exact effectiveness depends on the size of the PFAS molecules, the type of activated charcoal used, and the filtration conditions. Why choose Woody's Binchotan Activated Charcoal?
