What raw materials are suitable for manufacturing charcoal briquette?
How to reduce moisture content of materials to make high quality charcoal briquette?
What is the application of biochar briquette in South Africa?
This South African customer prepares to use sugar cane, corn stalks, rice husk and wheat straw, etc as biomass materials. These materials are suitable for making biochar briquettes. Why do you choose to turn these materials into biochar briquettes? 一般的に, charcoal briquette has a variety of uses in South Africa, including agriculture, energy, water and livestock.
South Africa has a very small proportion of arable land. Biochar briquette can be used to increase the nutrient and water storage capacity of soil.
Barbeque (Braai) is a traditional food in South Africa. Charcoal pellets are suitable for using as fuel for barbecues. And South Africa relies on coal-fired power generation. So using charcoal as fuel for factories can appropriately alleviate local energy shortages.
The activated carbon is a good material for removing odors and impurities from water.
In South Africa, there are a large number of farms. You can add biochar briquettes to feed to improve animal digestibility. And charcoal briquette can be used to absorb gases emitted by animals. This helps reduce greenhouse gas and ammonia emissions. Then adding an appropriate amount of biochar pellets to the animal manure mat will help reduce odor and drain water. This contributes to the animal's health.
How to make charcoal from biomass materials in South Africa?
After understanding the uses of charcoal briquette, the customer from South Africa clearly decided to produce biochar pellets. Before producing charcoal briquettes, you need to carbonize the material. What charcoal kiln is suitable for you?

Hoisting carbonization machine
With the electric hoist, it can lift the inner tank easily, which save labor cost. And each furnace is equipped with 3 inner tanks. Then its carbonizing time is 8-12 hours to ensure the good quality of charcoal. After one tank of materials finishes carbonization, you can lift out it by the hoist and then put another tank of materials for charring.
Horizontal carbonization furnace
It produces charcoal by batch. And its carbonizing time 8-10 時間, water cooling time 2-3 hours and air cooling 6-8 時間. What's more, its furnace body has three layers. The inner layer is high heat transfer and wear-resistance steel for increasing the carbonizing temperature. The outer layer is painted steel. The middle layer is the Aluminum silicate fiber insulation. ついに, the door of the furnace is sealed with ceramic packing.
4 Steps for producing biochar briquette
According to the requirement of South African client, we provide him with a complete biochar briquette making line. And there are some machines in this plant:
What is the requirement of charcoal for making briquettes?
This customer from South Africa wanted to know the requirement of charcoal. There are three requirements of charcoal for making high quality briquettes. サイズ, moisture and binder. You need to adjust charcoal according to these requirements.
The charcoal size should be less than 5mm so that you can easily press them into briquettes. For some large-sized charcoal such as lump charcoal, coconut shell charcoal, 等, it is necessary to use a charcoal crusher to crush it into powder before proceeding to the next step of mixing.
The moisture of charcoal for making briquettes is around 30%. So proper moisture is good for the briquettes forming and increasing the density of the charcoal briquettes.
いつもの, the binder is necessary for the charcoal briquettes processing. Because binder can make the charcoal briquettes more solid and smooth. And the most common binder is corn starch or cassava starch. The best binder adding rate is 4%-6%. There are also some customers who add the combustion improver to accelerate the lighting speed of charcoal. No matter binder or ignite accelerating agent, you can use a charcoal mixer to blend the charcoal powder with water and additive evenly.
