briquetting press

Mechanical stamping biomass briquetting press is a kind of curing equipment to make wood chips, sawdust, crop straws and so on into rod-like fuel through crushing, drying, compressing and molding. Biomass rods are widely used in the heating system of industrial production, government, enterprise, and domestic service.


Technological Process

Crush the raw material such as straws, twigs, barks, wood chips into fragments in about 20mm (shells and kernels need not to be crushed). Control the moisture within the range of 10-20%. The fragments are sent to screw lifter through feeding conveyor, and then are pushed into rod making machine's inlet by the screw lifter. At last, the fragments are compressed by punch.


Benefits

  1. Briquetting reduces waste volumes by up to 90% with considerable savings on disposal and transport costs.
  2. By briquetting, it is possible to produce high calorific value, quality fuel briquettes.
  3. Briquetting waste means a considerable reduction of fine dusts and other wastes through compression of the material, into clean and compact briquettes.
  4. Reduction in the danger of fires and explosions by briquetting flammable waste the economic solution to costly fire prevention measures when using a briquette maker.


Industries

Woodworking Industry

For carpenters, joiners and saw mills, the wood chips are compressed into dense solid briquettes, effectively reducing explosion and fire risk, they are an ideal carbon neutral fuel for heating the workshop or to sell into the domestic market place. By using a briquette maker, wooden briquettes are clean and easy to handle, with a high calorific value and a residual ash content of less than 0.5%.


Paper-processing Industry

Paper dust and fibres represent a high explosion and fire risk, by briquetting the residual materials will greatly reduce the risks. The reduction of the materials volume achieved with a briquette maker also facilitates more economical disposal. Briquetting of security shredded paper can take the security of the residual material to a higher level, making paper briquette presses a supreme choice for confidential document destruction.


Plastic processing Industry

With mould or model-making, or the waste from the Insulation and Packaging industry, by the briquetting of the plastic shavings, polystyrene or foam reduces the volume of waste by up to 90% using a briquette maker, considerably reducing the disposal and transportation costs.


Agricultural Industry

Straw, wood shavings or bio-fuels such as Miscanthus (Elephant Grass) can be processed into briquettes, ensuring a clean space-saving environment.


Metal-working Industry

Aluminium granulates and other residues from light alloy shavings are pressed into briquettes to form dense material with considerably improved melting properties. By using an aluminium briquetting press, this creates excellent marketing opportunities and in addition the coolant present in the shavings is recovered during the processing of the briquette.
