The method of manufacturing spherical activated carbon

(1) forming a spherical body consisting of heat-meltable resin, (2), characterized in that step by oxidizing the thermally fusible resin spheres to form a thermally infusible spheres, and (3) activating the heat infusible spheres comprising the step of forming a spherical activated carbon that describes the preparation of spherical activated carbon. This manufacturing method can be easily obtained spherical activated carbon having desired physical properties (e.g., average particle size, particle size distribution, pore volume or the specific surface area).
