Well.... Somebody finally made a video, start to finish, without a bunch confusing context, just the important points. Easy to understand, great video, all around well done!
One thing I'd add is a suggestion for saving the liquid that is run off from washing it out. Put that fine stuff in your watering pail the next time you water plants and it changes the soil slowly to terra preta. And all of those surfaces in there store fertilizer for the plants.
@@OnyxFoodHill good potent black soil can be found in the gutters out in front of your house. When you need it now you can use a lawnmower and mulch a bunch of old leaves. Only use leaves or brush that is dark Grey or black and stuff that has been compacted together like paper that has been wet, stacked and redried. If you've ever walked in the woods and kicked the top layer of loose leaves aside you will see a darker layer much like I described above. That stuff is the best. Yes the type of trees can matter but you get the idea
I've been doing much research on making charcoal and activating charcoal. This is the absolute best and most comprehensive tutorial in both content and delivery I have encountered. I will toss those that I've saved and use only this one as my go-to reference. Thank you!
@@OnyxFoodHill dude thank you for destroying activated charcoal high price nut case industry" much love for people like you, a question how much lemon juice for 1 kg of charcoal?
This method is nice. Hands down. It should also be noted that activated charcoal can be used to filter chemicals and heavy metals from water. Activated charcoal is what the company "Berkey" uses in their water filters and they are, in my opinion, the best water filtering company out there. How to make activated charcoal is an excellent survival tool. Great video. I took notes. Thank you.
Thank you very much! Your tutorial is easy ( household items), and it has a very low cost compared to those chemical methods (e.g. adding calcium chloride)! Subscribed! You deserve more views!Keep it up💪
Water filtered better to use than tap water which always of questionable quality no matter your location, better wash and rinse leads closer to higher quality activated product. Great tutorial!
You just made regular charcoal powder. You need a stronger acid than lemon juice (such as Calcium Chloride) to lower the activation temperatures from 600C-1200C to 450-900C, those temperatures are only achieved through a stovetop on high heat not an oven which'll only reach 240C.
@@joynakowa9782 Also you need a stainless steel pot and it still might not activate evenly like an industrial process would do, I wouldn't do it again and instead just use unactivated charcoal or buy it
Many years ago I went to Bangkok hospital for a physical check up and they have a bakery selling bread that was completely black, that when I found out about charcoal, today it seems like is a trend. Tks for sharing .
*Best to bake in an oven with a little CO2 gas pumped into the oven to a cidify the wet carbon (CARBONIC ACID). I mix the Carbon with crushed ice and soda water and let sit an hour then heat to 255 F. for 45 minutes in CO2 atmosphere. After heating the CO2 gas is gone (Must do out doors!). This makes a type of activated carbon 1000X more powerful and good enough for gas masks!*

To the people that have actually tried this ... DOES THIS WORK? real activated charcoal will bubble in water because of its reactiveness.... would be interested to see is it will absorb food coloring ... someone should make a video with this so called activated charcoal and regular charcoal with food coloring... IM VERY SKEPTICAL THIS WORKS
@@OnyxFoodHill tq. Will there be any time limit to use this activated charcoal? Some say that we should boil wood charcoal imrose water. Which way is correct? Can u pls let me know from where hav u gathered this info. Is it scientific, tested and tried with good results?
@@lathac4487 If you keep your activated charcoal in an airtight container, there's no time limit, but once air has come in contact with it, it gradually loses its potency.
Thanks so much for the video. I just made mine. Anyways I left mine to sit for 27hours,and I didn't rinse the lemon juice out of the charcoal, will it still work??
Great vid! Two questions: 1) can you use vinegar instead of lemon juce? (Or any oder acid?) 2) how do you know your coal is really activated? After all, both coals look the same!
WOW !!! This is good teaching. Love to learn on these. Can we also take little of the activated charcoal mixed with water, in cases of food poisoning, etc. Keep up the good work. Thank you.
So wonderful to know it is possible to make it myself! Thank you so much. Can you explain how to make initial charcoal, what wood can be used, etc. Thanks😊 will myrtle wood and elm work?
Wonderful. You made it look so easy. Can I buy any kind of charcoal from all kinds of wood for this? Or is there a certain type I should look for? Can any wood serve? Thanks
interesting if it works but usually it is made by heating at high temps to create all the micro crevasse, not sure how acid from lemon will do that?, also i would crush them to desired size before washing them with water
Excellent information thank you very much but I hope I never need to do this. Too much time too much trouble too many steps !! About a gallon of dry activated charcoal about 5-6 years ago and I have well over half of it left. But thanks for the video cuz I know it will help some people God bless you
Thanks my sister for sharing. I am a fan of your videos on RUclips. Please I want to ask if you can use any charcoal and then activate it? Thanks as I await your response. God bless you richly

Honestly, it is very explicit to understand. In short it is Crystal clear
It's cool but he didn't show how he heats his wood to make the charcoal. That is pretty important part
One thing I'd add is a suggestion for saving the liquid that is run off from washing it out. Put that fine stuff in your watering pail the next time you water plants and it changes the soil slowly to terra preta. And all of those surfaces in there store fertilizer for the plants.
Awww, thanks for the suggestion, I will have to try that, it is really hard to fine black soil where I am. It's helpful 👍👍
