According to the monitoring of the commodity market analysis system of Shengyi Society, the price of activated carbon at the beginning of the week was 12600 yuan/ton, and the price of activated carbon at the end of the week was 12633/ton, with a price increase of 0.26%.
Domestic coconut shell activated carbon manufacturers’ prices have risen this week, with the ex factory price of activated carbon for coconut shell water purification in East China ranging from 9500 to 13000 yuan/ton. Coconut shell activated carbon is in high demand in water treatment, air purification, sodium ion batteries, and other fields, supporting the price increase. In addition, the high transportation requirements for coconut shell carbonized materials, as well as cost factors such as packaging, insurance, and port operations, support the high price of activated carbon.
The price fluctuations of wooden and bamboo activated carbon are relatively small, while physical method wooden and bamboo carbon are supported by costs, and factory quotations are mainly stable. The main coconut producing countries in Southeast Asia are affected by natural disasters, policy adjustments, and other factors, resulting in a shortage of raw material supply. Although some countries have plans to expand production, the tight supply situation is difficult to change in the short term, and prices will still remain high.
Prediction: There is a shortage of coconut shell activated carbon raw materials in China, and it is expected that the price of activated carbon will mainly fluctuate at a high level in the short term.
