Coconut Shell Powder: Production and Specifications
Coconut shell powder is produced by processing clean, mature coconut shells. The shells, free from coir pith or contaminants, are broken into smaller pieces and pulverized. The resulting powder passes through a cyclone, collected in bag filters, and sieved to meet specific mesh size requirements. Rejects from the sieving process are recycled for further size reduction, ensuring minimal waste.
Consistent quality depends on selecting shells at the proper maturity stage and using efficient machinery. Coconut shell powder is widely used in industries such as plywood, adhesives, and as a filler in synthetic resins.
