Biomass Briquettes

Bio coal briquetting is the process of converting agricultural waste into high density and energy concentrated fuel briquettes. Bio coal briquetting plant are of various sizes which converts agricultural waste into solid fuels. Briquettes are ready substitute of coalwood in industrial boiler and brick kiln for thermal application.
briquettes have high specific density (1200 kgm3) and bulk density (800 kgm3) compared to just 60 to 180 kgm3 of loose bio coal. These can stand the ardors of long distance transport. Loadingunloading and transportation costs are much less and storage requirement is drastically reduced. Compared to fire wood or loose bio coal, briquettes give much higher boiler efficiency
because of low moisture and higher density
briquettes produced from briquetting of bio coal are fairly good substitute for coal, lignite, firewood and offer numerous advantages:
bio coal briquettes are cheaper than coal.
oil, coal or lignite, once used, cannot be replaced.
high sulfur content of oil and coal, when burnt, pollutes the environment.
there is no sulfur in briquettes.
bio coal briquettes have a higher practical thermal value and much lower ash content (2-10% as compared to 20-40% in coal).
there is no fly ash when burning bio coal briquettes.
bio coal briquettes have consistent quality, have high burning efficiency, and are ideally sized for complete combustion.
combustion is more uniform compared to coal and boiler response to changes in steam requirements is faster due to higher quantity of volatile matter in bio coal briquettes.
bio coal briquettes are usually produced near the consumption centers and supplies do not depend on erratic transport from long distances.
