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 12933 yuan/ton, and the price of activated carbon at the end of the week was 12933/ton, which is stable.

Domestic manufacturers’ prices of activated carbon remained stable 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. Currently, the supply of coconut shell raw materials remains tight, and the demand for porous carbon materials for new energy batteries is increasing. High prices limit downstream transaction enthusiasm, and the market is sluggish.
From the supply side, the main coconut producing areas in Southeast Asia have been affected by natural disasters, resulting in a decrease in production and an increase in costs for domestic enterprises with high import dependence. Coconut production in countries such as the Philippines and Indonesia has also been affected, leading to a decrease in coconut shell raw material supply and an increase in demand for coconut shell activated carbon in areas such as new energy batteries and gold extraction, supporting high prices. ‌‌
Prediction: The domestic market prices are high and transactions are lower than expected. It is expected that the price of activated carbon will mainly fluctuate in the short term.
