• steam is introduced from outside the cylindrical portion in a tangential direction to the inner surface of the cylinder. Since the cylindrical shell having the steam inlet is provided, the superheated steam comes into contact with the processing object by a high-speed swirling flow, heat transfer to the processing object sufficiently proceeds, and the entire processing object reaches a high temperature. Therefore, reactions such as drying, carbonization, carbonization, and activation are promoted, and high-quality activated carbon can be produced.
• one or more steam inlets provided in a cylindrical shell of a drying furnace, a carbonization furnace, a dry carbonization furnace, or a carbonization promotion furnace of a carbonization device for producing activated carbon supply steam. Since the shape is such that it is introduced in the tangential direction of the inner surface of the cylinder in the same direction as the rotation direction of the stirring blade, it flows through the cylindrical shell with a strong swirling flow and contacts the object to be treated with sufficient time and relative speed. Accordingly, reactions such as drying, carbonization, carbonization, and activation are promoted, and high-quality activated carbon can be produced.
• the cylindrical shell of the carbonization device for producing activated carbon is provided with a water vapor discharge port for discharging used water vapor in a tangential direction of the inner surface of the cylindrical portion.
• the flow is maintained, the flow velocity relative to the object to be treated is kept high, and the heat transfer is promoted. Therefore, the object to be treated is exposed to high-temperature superheated steam for a long time, and reactions such as drying, carbonization, carbonization, and activation are promoted, and high-quality activated carbon can be produced.
• the flow rate of superheated steam or used steam supplied to the drying furnace, the carbonizing furnace, the dry carbonizing furnace or the carbonization promoting furnace of the carbonizing apparatus for producing activated carbon is adjusted to 5 to 20 (m / s). Since the water vapor moves in the reactor while maintaining a relatively high velocity relative to the substance to be treated with a swirling flow to some extent, the transfer of heat to the object to be treated is promoted. In addition, the temperature of the object to be treated approaches the temperature of steam, and various reactions such as drying, carbonization, carbonization, and activation are promoted. Therefore, high quality activated carbon can be manufactured in a short time.
