Charcoal Making Process 

Charcoal is made from agricultural waste. Converts wood into a valuable fuel. Recycling and reuse of resources can be achieved. It has the advantageous characteristics of environmental protection and high efficiency, high calorific value, long burning time and so on. Many friends are curious about the production and processing of charcoal. Therefore, this article will discuss in detail the raw material selection, process flow, and precautions for the use of charcoal.
 

Introduction To Charcoal Production 

Mechanism charcoal is manufactured into charcoal sticks by charcoal equipment. It can also produce: anthracite coal, honeycomb briquettes, carbon blocks, carbon rods, etc. It has a wide range of wood raw materials, including: rice husk, coconut shell, peanut shell, corn cob, straw and other agricultural waste. As well as sawdust, wood shavings, shavings, sawdust and so on. Charcoal has the following distinctive features: environmental protection, high efficiency, easy to use and other advantageous features. Making charcoal does not require professional felling of trees. Instead, it makes full use of the waste materials of wood products for production. The effective use of waste is realised.


Charcoal Making Features 

Mechanism charcoal contains about 80% charcoal. Compared with ordinary charcoal, it has higher calorific value and longer burning time. During the burning process. No smoke and probe will be produced. No sparks will appear in the process of burning. Less carbon residue after burning. Adopting hollow structure, it is more conducive to the charcoal stick to fully contact with the air, which is good for combustion.
 

Charcoal Making Process 

The production process of charcoal making includes: crushing, drying, rod making and carbonisation. First of all, the raw materials (coconut shells, fruit shells, rice husks, peanut shells, bark, etc.), need to be crushed by the wood crusher for fine crushing. It is convenient for subsequent drying and briquette. The crushed material then passes through the dryer. The raw material will be dehydrated and dried. So that the moisture in the material is controlled at 6%-12%. So as to ensure the products of briquette. The charcoal stick making machine is the briquette machine in the whole set of production line. The biomass raw materials are extruded into solid core rods with centre holes under high temperature and high pressure. The core rod is then finally carbonised at high temperature in the carbonisation furnace to convert the core rod into high-quality charcoal.

Key points and considerations

Raw materials and equipment dominate the process of charcoal making. Depending on the region, selecting the raw materials is the key to ensure high quality charcoal. The overall cost-effectiveness should also be taken into account. In addition, a reputable charcoal making machine manufacturer should be selected. Ensure the reliability of the subsequent after-sales service. In daily use, be sure to pay attention to the maintenance and repair of the equipment to reduce the equipment loss and failure rate.


Driven by the huge market demand, mechanism charcoal comes into being, and its most common are: long and spherical charcoal. From the market and cost point of view, charcoal is produced by charcoal making machine. Its economic benefits are quite considerable. Therefore, starting a charcoal making plant is a practical and feasible business option. It can also effectively meet the market demand for environmentally friendly dyes. Good economic and social benefits can be achieved.
