Hello Cody, I have a recommendation that would likely work better. Instead of boiling water using a torch and sending steam into the carbon, send the torch flame directly into the tube that goes into the furnace. The exhaust of a properly tuned torch has a huge amount of water vapor in it, and some carbon dioxide, while containing little to no oxygen. Propane is C3H8; when fully combusted, each propane molecule results in four water molecules and three carbon dioxide molecules. Both carbon dioxide and water vapor will carry out reduction reactions that pit the charcoal and increase its surface area; hot carbon dioxide gives up one of its oxygens upon striking charcoal, resulting in two carbon monoxides. Reduction reactions are way more efficient at higher temperatures, and the exhaust of a torch is far hotter than the steam you were using. I work at a micro-scale biomass gasifier company. The charcoal produced by our reactors passes through a 600-800˚C reduction zone, and was lab tested to have 496 m^2 of surface area per gram. Try using the torch flame itself as the source of the reduction gases. Insulate the tube that feeds your reaction chamber; the hotter the gases, the more efficiently the reduction occurs. Since all the reduction reactions are endothermic, making the gas hotter gives it more energy to carry out the reduction reactions.

Super memories here. My first job was with a company making smokeless fuel. Our lab did everything from tar-analysis to pollution measurement to weather-recording (wind direction records were used to measure dust-particle fallout from chimneys). That was all back in the 70s when virtually everything was gravimetric. Weighing scales, the ones that used counterweights and burettes were daily tools. Titration of multiple samples was incredibly boring but more than compensated for with our sample collecting. Taking water samples from rivers included measuring its flowrate. Dust sampling units were scattered over a wide area and the wind-direction data allowed us to map the deposition rates. This video mentioned water-gas. We produced a good amount of that and its a rare thing to hear about. I loved that work and the people that did it.

I still consider this one of the best science videos on youtube. I've worked with charcoal and biochar for a few years and this was when I first saw it last year and still is the best analysis of charcoal or activated carbon out there. Thanks for doing this stuff dude.

Big piece of advice on making this product. When sifting run a magnet though the powder. This will remove metals. Use this especially if buying store bought charcoal. It will pick up rust and sometimes through the process of manufacturers a decent amount of metals can get into the charcoal since it is is compressed powdered charcoal you never really know what's in it. If your magnet picks up a lot of metals scrap it and start over.

You perform the most sketchy yet professional experiments

You have used stoichiometry and mass balance in the past, but this was a true experiment, showing the difference between a control and three different test substances. Each step, including the screening of particle size was well planned out. It also has very practical real-world applications.

The production of CO and H2 during this process reminds me of the previous method by which H2 gas was mass produced, by passing steam over red-hot iron. The oxygen from the H2O combines with Fe, thus liberating H2. Over 240 years ago, Antoine Lavoisier used this method to help prove the conservation of mass in chemical reactions and to pioneer the concept of stoichiometry.

Good job Cody! I give you some tips. 1) the woodbased charcoal developes normally a small surface without activating agent by self gasification. You have made what is called "physical activation" with steam but can be done also with carbon dioxide. During the carbonization is developed some CO2 that self activate the carbon to some extent. Different pore size distribution by the way you normally obtain with CO2 generating more micropores while steam as you described in the plastiline examples favors the production of mesopores (2

Nothing like being pedantic at bedtime, lol.

Hey Cody, you can fill the tube with table salt instead of tin, I did it myself and vouch for it.. I think much easier to do it that way, I learned it from someone who made copper coil for distilleries

Thank you for sharing this video!

Thumbs up Cody good teaching in a really useful way

Cody, great videos... but take better care of your lungs... because you're constantly working with dust, you'll eventually get COPD without diligent use of a dust mask.

I really enjoy the length and editing of these videos! Thank you for your effort into quality educational content and have you ever messed with wood-gas?

Well done, Sir!

Oh man, I wanted to study for my exam but here I go watching your video

Cody a great tip for bending tube like that is to fill it full of water, cap an end, and freeze it. The ice will prevent the tube from collapsing. Plus it's much easier to clean up : )

Though a lot slower for it to freeze compared to letting the metal solidify.

I was told/showed by plumber that you can use sand

I've heard that packing a tube with sand before bending will keep it from kinking. I haven't tried that myself though.

could do the same with galium and not have to cap it plus galium is always fun

Cody. the reason i come back is that you are the only person i find saying things like, 'and keep in mind there may be significant margin of error here, but it was at least comparable'. humble skill is rare, and so is integrity. you sir are a fine example of both

This is really cool! Plenty of information, makes yah appreciate science.
