How does a charcoal machine work

Charcoal machine is a mechanical equipment used for making charcoal. Its working principle and process are as follows:

Working principle

The working principle of charcoal machine is mainly based on high-temperature dry distillation or carbonization treatment. Transforming raw materials containing biomass fibers (such as tree branches, straw, rice straw, peanut shells, tree trunks, cotton straw, tea seed shells, fruit shells, weeds, leaves, etc.) into charcoal through a series of physical and chemical changes.

workflow

• Raw material preparation: Firstly, the raw materials are pre treated, such as cutting or crushing, to ensure that they meet the processing requirements of the charcoal machine. The raw materials are usually crushed into particles or powders within 10mm.
• Drying: The crushed raw materials are sent to a dryer for drying treatment to reduce their moisture content to within 12%. This step is crucial for the subsequent rod making and carbonization processes.
• Stick making: The dried raw materials are subjected to high-pressure molding treatment by a stick making machine to form charcoal sticks with a certain degree of density and strength. No additives are added in this step.
• Carbonization: Send the formed charcoal rod into a Carbonization furnace for carbonization treatment. In a high-temperature and oxygen deficient environment, organic matter in wood undergoes thermal decomposition, producing charcoal, biomass gas, and exhaust gas. Charcoal is rapidly cooled by a cooling system and eventually becomes solid charcoal.

Equipment Composition

• The main equipment of a charcoal machine includes a pulverizer, a dryer, a rod making machine, and a Carbonization furnace. These devices are connected in sequence according to the production process, jointly completing the charcoal production process.
• Crusher: used to crush raw materials into particles or powders suitable for processing.
• Drying machine: used to reduce the moisture content of raw materials, ensuring smooth subsequent rod making and carbonization processes.
• Stick making machine: By high-pressure molding, the dried raw materials are made into charcoal sticks with a certain density and strength.
• Carbonization furnace: Carbonization treatment is carried out in a high-temperature and oxygen deficient environment to convert charcoal sticks into solid charcoal.

Product advantages

• Environmental Protection: The exhaust gas generated during the production process of charcoal machines can be effectively treated through exhaust gas treatment devices to reduce environmental pollution. At the same time, charcoal machines can also utilize biomass resources such as waste wood to achieve resource recycling.
• Efficient: The production process of charcoal machine is more efficient compared to traditional firing methods, and can obtain charcoal faster.
• Energy saving: The charcoal machine adopts high-temperature dry distillation or carbonization method, which is more energy-efficient than traditional firing methods.
