Charcoal / Biomass Briquettes Plant

Biomass Briquette investment is a best project to generate revenue from agro-forestry waste and to produce Green Energy to protect the global environment. The awareness of using Eco-friendly & Non-conventional Bio-coal / Bio-fuel is increasing day-to-day due to the increasing of the conventional fuel cost.

Screw Biomass Briquettes Plant - GCBC Series

Biomass briquettes plant is also known as briquette making machine. GCBC series briquetting machine is screw type design. GCBC Series briquette making machine is a kind of high-end briquetting equipment. It is improved in both appearance design and structure design based on 6 years of research and manufacturing experience. Do not need to change Inner Former until input capacity exceed 1000 tons.

Final Biomass Briquettes:

Our Briquetting Press is in screw type, it produces cylindrical briquettes with a hole through the centre of the cylinder. The briquettes produced by a screw press is easily handled and stacked, and they have some advantages over those produced using the ram and die press. While the briquettes produced by a piston press are completely solid, screw press briquettes on the other hand have a concentric hole which gives better combustion characteristics due to a larger specific area. The screw press briquettes are also homogeneous and do not disintegrate easily. Having a high combustion rate, these can substitute for coal in most applications and in boilers.

Our biomass briquettes plant have automatic temperature control system, it is designed to produce high density wood or biomass briquette as biofuel.

Features of GCBC Series Biomass Briquettes Plant :

Long Life of Screw Shaft Our machine adopts a durable material (high hardness alloy steel) to make the shaft. We use a different process then what is normally used to make the screw shaft. The screw shaft is manufactured with a milling machine which guarantees that the distance between every screw is the same, and the angle of every screw is the same.
Long Life of Inner Former The Inner Former can be used for 1-2 years.The former is made from a whole steel bar through a water jet cutting system so that the inner face is smooth. Therefore, it’ll be easier to form and save energy. This is why the finished produces such as sawdust briquettes are smooth. It consists of two parts and you need to change only the key part when it is worn.
Heating section - we adopted two heat collars which are made from thick copper wires and are ceramic inside.
An attractive feature on the forming hopper is that we added a movable plate on the bottom. It has two functions, one is you can clean it easily. The other is that you can discharge the inputted material when it is jammed.
Lubricating System The gear box is equipped with lubricating system. Moreover, to oil the gear box properly, our briquette machine is designed with an exhaust function which can help maintain consistent air pressure.
Auto Cutting System It’s a simple piece of equipment composed of two steel plates. (Please see the picture), and briquettes can be automatically cut in uniformed lengths.

Working principle:

Briquetting is a process that biomass is compressed under high pressure and high temperature. The machine uses a large screw to grind the biomass into briquettes that are of uniform composition.

The self bonding of biomass to form a briquette involves the thermo-plastic flow of the biomass. The lignin content that occurs naturally in biomass is liberated under high pressure and temperature. Lignin serves as the glue in the briquetting process, thus binding,compressing the biomss to form into high density briquettes. During this process, no binder need to be used. So the ouput briquette is a type of clean and green fuel that is ideal for use in furnaces, boilers and open fires. The density of the briquettes is 1300kg/CBM.

Flow chart of the Biomass Briquetting Plant Process:

This plant can make stick shape wood briquette of different diameter and different shape from biomass and agro-forest waste. Any type of Agro-Forestry waste can be used, such as Groundnut-shell ,Sugarcane residue, Saw dust , Coffee Husk , Paddy Straw ,Sunflower Stalk, Cotton Stalks ,Tobacco waste Mustard Stalk ,Jute waste , Bamboo Dust ,Tea waste, Wheat Straw ,Palm husk ,Soybeans husk , Rice Husks ,Forestry wastes ,Wood Chips and many other Agro wastes. But the Moisture Content Should be Less than 12%, grain size is below 5×5mm.
