Charcoal Briquette Applications

Charcoal briquette has the advantages of high density,small volume,good flammability, smokfree, tasteless, non-toxic, etc. It’s widely used in heating,BBQ market. In the industry area, it’s the alternative raw material of the coal or heavy oil. 

Material Of Charcoal Briqutte Production Line

Many material suitable to make the charcoal briquette, if the wood logs are available, they are very suitable to make the charcoal briquette directly. But since the forest resuorces are limited, and also this will add the cost, so more wood waste, branches, sasdust,agro waste beome alternative raw materials. But these materials need some special process before they become charcoal briquette. 

Process Of Charcoal Briquette Production Line

1. Crushing the material into granules less than 10mm. Below are the crushing machine for wood logs,braches,straws,agro waste.

2. Dry the granules to make reduce the mositure between 8%-12%,this process needs special attention. Below are the 2 styles dryer for different capacity.
The air flow dryer usually match small capacity production line, for large capacity line it cann’t reduce too much moisture. Rotary dryer is very suitable for large capacity line, and for the material with above 30% or 40% moisture. Because its effect of removing mositure is obvious.

3. Carbonizing the sawdust stick into charcoal briquettes. This process will heat and burn the stick in the carbonization furnace, in order to save cost, some customers will build the carbonization furnace by themselves. 

4. Cooling the saw dust stick to room temp.
Since the temperature of is very high, the charcoal briquette need cooling for 8-24 hours.
