How To Turn Woody Waste Into Charcoal Briquettes?

Both hardwood and waste wood can be made into high quality charcoal. The charcoal produced through charcoal making machine is characterised by high heat generation and long-lasting combustion. So, how to convert ordinary discarded wood waste into efficient fuel? The key lies in the process of pyrolysis under conditions of incomplete combustion or air isolation. During the process, the wood or wood waste will gradually turn into a dark brown or black porous solid. This charcoal retains the original structure of the wood and also leaves organic substances such as tar in its voids, which ultimately results in amorphous charcoal.

 

The choice of raw material for making charcoal needs to be based on the positioning of the product being sold. If you produce raw wood charcoal, you can purchase a new type of horizontal carbonisation furnace. In terms of raw materials, various types of trees are mainly used, of which hardwood makes the best charcoal. In addition, biomass waste such as discarded wood blocks from timber and furniture factories, trimmings from flooring factories, and large fruit shells and coconut shells can be used to support charcoal through the carbonisation process.

Wood Waste Made Into Charcoal Briquettes

 

If you want to produce high quality charcoal. You need to buy a whole set of charcoal making machine: crusher, dryer, carbonisation furnace, briquette machine which are the four core equipment. The raw materials for its charcoal come from a wide range of sources: sawdust, rice husk, bamboo shavings, peanut shells, tree branches and other biomass. The raw materials are moulded by the high temperature and high pressure of the briquette machine, and become the semi-finished raw materials of charcoal sticks. Then it will be carbonised by horizontal carbonising furnace. Finally it is made into finished charcoal.
