3、e of this guide, the dust attrition coefficient, DA, isdefined as the weight (or calculated volume) of dust per unittime, collected on a preweighed filter, in a given vibratingdevice during a designated time per unit weight of carbon. Theinitial dust content of the sample may also be determined.Gran
4、ular activated carbon is defined as a minimum of 90 %being larger than 80 mesh (0.18 mm) (see Test MethodsD2867).1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The inch-pound units given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.3 This guide does not purport to address all of th
5、e safetyconcerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this guide to establish appropriate safety andhealth practices and determine the applicability of regulatorylimitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Guide3.1 A known volume of known weight of the granularactivated carbon is placed in a sample holder
7、and vibrated atconstant acceleration (g) for a known time. The dust is carriedby an air stream passing through the vibrating sample and isthen collected on a preweighed filter. The quantities of dustcollected in six 10-min intervals are determined by weighingson an analytical balance.4. Significance
8、 and Use4.1 Three forces can mechanically degrade a granular acti-vated carbon: impact, crushing, and attrition. Of these three,attrition, or abrasion, is the most common cause of dustformation in actual service. Published test procedures todetermine the 9hardness9 of activated carbons produce resul
9、tsthat in general cannot be correlated with field experience. Forexample, the ball-pan hardness test applies all three forces tothe sample in a variable manner determined by the size, shape,and density of the particles. The 9stirring bar9 abrasion testmeasures attrition so long as the particle size
10、is smaller than 12mesh. There is some evidence, however, that the results of thistest method are influenced by particle geometry. The procedureset forth in this guide measures the effect of friction forcesbetween vibrating or slowly moving particles during the testand may be only slightly dependent
11、on particle size, shape anddensity effects.5. Apparatus5.1 Vibrating Table3, capable of providing an RMS (rootmean square) acceleration of 40 m/s/s (4 g).5.2 Test Cell, such as shown in Fig. 1, preferably made ofaluminum or other electrically conductive material.5.3 Piezoelectric Accelerometer4, cap
