Millennium Carbon
frequently asked questions
Where does Millennium Carbon operate?
Our existing facility is located at the Port of Kawaihae on Hawaii Island which allows for efficient shipping to the mainland United States and the far east. The plant is fully permitted and also serves as our primary technology research and development center.
Where do we get our macadamia nutshells?
Our plant is located in Hawaii which is one of the largest producers of macadamia nuts in the world. We obtain our feedstock from macadamia nut processors and are located adjacent to one of the largest macadamia processors in Hawaii.
Does the Millennium Carbon facility meet environmental and safety standards?
Yes. The facility is designed to be environmentally friendly as well as safe. Our facility has undergone a rigorous regulatory review, and we fully comply with and have received all necessary permits from the governing environmental authorities in Hawaii.
What does Millennium Carbon do to protect the environment and community?
Our plant cleanly generates its own power through our unique production process thereby eliminating reliance on the local grid, increasing efficiency, and lessening waste. Our use of macadamia nutshell feedstock repurposes what would be landfill into a valuable and useful resource that creates local jobs and encourages local community development.
What is an "EDLC?"
EDLC stands for electric double-layer capacitor, also known as an ultracapacitor or supercapacitor. EDLCs are a next generation electrical storage device that has benefits relative to traditional battery technologies.
How is Millennium Carbon's Activated Carbon used in ultracapacitors?
Activated carbon is a primary component used in coating the ultracapacitor electrodes. Our premium Activated Carbon's large surface area provides an ideal medium on which to store a larger and more reliable electrical charge in ultracapacitors.
What is "ANG" storage?
ANG storage stands for adsorbed natural gas storage. This is a new process of efficiently and safely storing larger volumes of natural gas at low pressure than in traditional compressed gas applications. ANG storage relies on our premium Activated Carbon utilizing the process of adsorption, microscopic, chemical adhesion of a liquid or gas on the pore surface of high surface area substances such as activated carbon.
How is Millennium Carbon's Activated Carbon used medicine and therapeutics?
Our premium Activated Carbon may be used in the treatment of poison ingestion, purification in the manufacture of therapeutics and additives, solvent recovery, and dialysis applications. Activated Carbon may be used as an antidote by adsorbing toxins, as a decolorant or purifier for therapeutic manufacture, or as a supplement to support and promote healthy kidney function.
