How To Make Charcoal From Coconuts?

In foreign countries, especially in Southeast Asia where coconuts are abundantly produced in countries or places. Every year, a large number of discarded coconut shells are thrown away and wasted. What ordinary people don't know is that coconut shells can be wasted and turned into treasure. Many people have long started to use waste coconut shells for charcoal production. This has resulted in very substantial profits.


 

Overview of Coconut Charcoal

Coconut shell charcoal is a renewable resource and has no impact on deforestation. And the ash residue is very low. The burnt ash can also be used as fertiliser. Compared with traditional charcoal, coconut shell charcoal has high calorific value and burns longer. And coconut shell can also be used as activated carbon, which is unique in the field of environmental protection industry.


 

How To Make Charcoal From Coconuts?


 

Coconut Shell To Make Charcoal Method One:

People often collect the waste coconut shells to produce environmentally friendly smokeless charcoal in an environmentally friendly way. Firstly, the waste coconut shells are placed in a horizontal carbonisation furnace and then sealed. Then the fire is ignited from the bottom of the carbonisation furnace. The furnace starts to heat up, and the carbonisation time and temperature can be set according to the material. When a certain temperature is reached, the coconut shell turns into coconut shell charcoal. After cooling, the coconut shell charcoal is taken out. Then the coconut shell charcoal is ground into fine points by the grinding machine. Then the carbon powder is sent to the mixing barrel for even mixing. After sufficient mixing, it will be extruded through the rod making machine at high temperature and high pressure. The charcoal rods are finally formed. At this time, the produced charcoal sticks are wet and need to be dried again or dried naturally. The charcoal sticks are solidified. Thus smokeless charcoal is produced.

 

 

Coconut Shell To Make Charcoal Method Two:

Firstly, the coconut shell is placed in the wood crusher for crushing. Then the crushed coconut shells are sent to the continuous carbonisation furnace, where the material is fed from the inlet. And then through the high temperature carbonisation furnace body for carbonisation. Then the coconut shell becomes coconut shell carbon. At this time, the coconut shell charcoal is dry, crispy, and the carbon content is too high. Such coconut shell charcoal is finished. These coconut shell charcoal can also be used in many places: barbecue, heating, water purification chemicals, gas purification and environmental protection equipment and other industry areas.

 

 

Main features of coconut shell charcoal:

High adsorption: developed pore structure, large specific surface area, can efficiently adsorb organic matter, odour, pigment and so on.

Natural environmental protection: waste coconut shell, renewable and will not cause environmental pollution. Achieve resource utilisation.

Chemical stability: acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, adaptable to a variety of environments.
