The environmental continuous carbonization furnace is a highly efficient, eco-friendly recycling processing unit. Its primary function is the thermochemical conversion of biomass resources by controlling temperature, pressure and atmosphere within the carbonization chamber. This transforms biomass feedstocks such as wood chips, bamboo shavings, sawdust and rice husks into charcoal. The entire process comprises five stages: pre-treatment, drying, pyrolysis, carbonization and cooling.
First, biomass feedstock is conveyed into the continuous carbonization furnace via a feeding system. This system ensures continuous, uniform material delivery into the furnace. Within the furnace, the feedstock undergoes a drying stage to remove moisture, preparing it for subsequent pyrolysis. During drying, temperature and atmosphere must be strictly controlled to ensure complete pyrolysis of organic matter while minimising waste gas generation.
Subsequently, during pyrolysis, the raw material is heated within the continuous carbonization furnace to its cracking temperature. This stage decomposes the material, yielding combustible gases, bio-oil, and solid charcoal. Gases generated throughout pyrolysis undergo purification via a flue gas treatment system, achieving environmental compliance and energy recovery objectives. Monitoring and adjustment through the control system ensure the entire carbonization process operates under optimal conditions.
Subsequently, the material enters the carbonization stage. The solid matter undergoes continuous carbonization at a specific temperature, enhancing the fixed carbon yield of the product. During this process, adjustments to temperature and atmospheric conditions facilitate the gradual conversion of organic matter into charcoal. The carbonization furnace is constructed from SS310S material, ensuring it can withstand high temperatures and operate stably for extended periods.
Finally, the carbonised charcoal is discharged via the cooling system. Reducing its temperature facilitates safe removal. The cooled charcoal is then expelled through the discharge system, concluding the entire carbonization process. Throughout, the exhaust system manages waste gas treatment and preheating, ensuring efficient and environmentally sound carbonization.
In summary, the operating principle of the environmentally friendly continuous carbonization furnace involves controlling temperature, pressure, and atmosphere during carbonization to convert biomass feedstock into charcoal. Throughout this process, integrated systems collaborate to ensure efficient, stable, and eco-friendly carbonization. The application of continuous carbonization furnaces not only enhances the utilisation rate of biomass resources but also contributes to reducing environmental pollution and advancing sustainable development.
