Different Working Methods of Beston Biochar Production Equipment



Introduction to Biochar Production Process
Compared to traditional charcoal kilns, Beston biochar machine is more eco-friendly and effective. We will explain the biomass pyrolysis process below.
1. Pre-treatment System
According to our experiment and customers’ feedback, the moisture content of raw material should be less than 15% and the size should be smaller than 20mm. The ideal size and moisture content will help us to get higher quality charcoal within less time. In this system, we can equip the dryer, scatter, crusher, etc. as you need.
2. Biochar Production Process
After pre-treatment, the raw materials will be delivered to the furnace at high temperatures. Beston Group Co., LTD. has a unique design, namely “one-fire-two-steps”, which means to dry the raw material first before the pyrolysis of biomass. With the increase of the temperature to 250 ℃, the material is broken down, it releases gas. Then the gas goes through the condensing system to extract tar and wood vinegar. When the temperature reaches up to 300 ℃, charcoal will be generated. In general, the input : output =3:1(yield rate). And the combustible gas will be recycled to make the plant self-sustaining to save heating energy. Here is a video showing the working process clearly.
3. De-dusting System
It is used to clean exhaust gas. We often equip water spray towers, cyclone dust collectors, etc. to purify the tail gas. The equipment of the de-dusting system can be customized according to your local emission standard.
4. Discharging System
In order to keep the working condition safe, we design a water cooling system to cool down the charcoal to 30 ℃ or less to discharge. Discharging works while feeding to save your time greatly.
As you can see, our biochar machine is energy-saving and easy to use. Moreover, our engineers will be on-site to help with your installation and worker training. You will be glad to cooperate with Beston.

FAQ of Biochar Making Machine
Q: How Is the Market Prospect of Biochar Machine?
A: As a requirement of environmental protection, traditional charcoal kilns are phased out. However, there is still great demand for charcoal. Meanwhile, biomass waste is also an essential issue to be solved in many areas around the world. For example, we can find a lot of palm oil mills in Thailand. A palm kernel shell charcoal machine will help you reduce the waste and turn it into wealth. So green charcoal carbonization plant will be an emerging alternative.
Q: What Can Be the Raw Materials?
A: All biomass waste can be made into charcoal, including agricultural waste, civil sludge, municipal solid waste, etc. Our clients employ charcoal machines to process palm fiber, garden waste, sawdust, coconut shells, pig hair, etc.
Q: What Is the Output Yield of Charcoal?
A: Actually, the output yield will be different from the raw materials, the water content, the size, etc. Generally, the output yield is about 1:3. For example, during coconut shell charcoal production, you can get 280 to 330 kg charcoal from 1000 kg coconut shells. All in all, if you want higher output, make your raw material is 8 to 15 mm in size and less than 15% water content.
Q: How Can I Choose Biochar Production Equipment?
A: We advise you to choose a model on the basis of the raw materials you will process, your budget, your space, etc. Besides, we will design the charcoal making plant according to your real conditions. That is to say, the more specific information you provide to us, the sooner you can get an ideal carbonization plant.
