Charcoal dust works by adsorbing toxins and impurities onto its porous surface, allowing it to trap and remove them from the environment or a substance. This makes charcoal dust commonly used in air and water purification systems, as well as in skincare products to help draw out impurities from the skin.

Why is charcoal is limited medium?

Charcoal is: monochromatic - you are have color value, but are limited to one color. thick - the drawing material does not hold a point well, so you are limited to broader strokes and less detail. messy - there is a large amount of "dust" which results in dirty hands, smudges on the surfaces around the work and on the finished piece. indelible - this is one medium you should not make a mistake with as it is virtually impossible to erase. impermanent - even if you use a spray fixative, charcoal drawings do not usually survive long periods of time. As a medium for gestural sketches, planning and layout work, studies and practice, and life drawings charcoal is adequate to the task, but would not be my first choice.


Can you substitute pulverized charcoal briquettes for activated charcoal?

No, pulverized charcoal briquettes cannot be used as a substitute for activated charcoal in applications such as water filtration or medical treatments. Activated charcoal goes through a specific activation process that increases its surface area and makes it more effective for adsorption. Using charcoal briquettes may not have the same level of adsorption capacity or purity as activated charcoal.

Why a spark can cause coal dust in a mine to explode and yet not cause an explosion with charcoal in abarbeque grill?

Open flames were used to help miners see until the advent of portable lighting. There was a massive amount of dust flying around coal mines, and it is very flammable. When it's a fine powder, it becomes explosive. The reason charcoal does not do this with a grill is because charcoal is made from wood products, not coal, and is not nearly as flammable or capable of producing the fine particulate dust that can combust easily.
