Question

explain manufacturing of graphite by Acheson process​

Answer 1

Synthetic graphite is a man made substance manufactured by the high temperature processing of amorphous carbon materials. The types of amorphous carbon used as precursors to graphite are many, and can be derived from petroleum, coal, or natural and synthetic organic materials.The Acheson process is a process to synthesize graphite and silicon carbide (SiC), named after its inventor Edward Goodrich Acheson. ... The electric current heated the graphite and other materials, allowing them to react, producing a layer of silicon carbide around the graphite core.
