Query string - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[^], search for "#". ...the character # can be used to further specify a subsection (or fragment) of a document...

This one is better:
Uniform Resource Identifier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[^]

And I suggest you do inspect uri for the following:
Uri uri= new Uri(@"ftp://localhost/s/as#");

1. Creating a folder with a # in it is a bad idea, in my opinion. You are likely to run into weird problems if you use special characters.
2. You can use UrlEncode to encode the special characters. HttpUtility.UrlEncode Method (System.Web)[^]

You need to URLEncode the special characters. In your case, use

C#

FtpWebRequest requestDir = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri(@"ftp://localhost/s/as%23"));
