biomass briquette It has become more and more important for companies to find low-cost methods of recycling their waste materials. This is especially true if these waste materials have a high energy content and we want to take them back into the energy cycle. Wood is a natural product which - highly compacted as a briquette - almost takes on the burning behaviour of coal. Owning to their great density wood briquettes have a higher calorific value than the same quantity of firewood. They can be used instead of coal or wood in domestic solid-fuel stoves as well as in industrial furnaces. Our Briquetting Press reduces the volume of your waste to save on storage and haulage costs. Your wood remains a natural product because it is briquetting without binder. Burning briquettes as fuel closes a natural conservation cycle - on combustion they only release as much carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere as was originally absorbed by the growing tree during photosynthesis. Advantages of our Briquetting Press System The briquetting presses are strong, robust and compact. They are delivered fully assembled and ready for immediate connection. They have the reliability and longevity associated with hydraulic machines. They produce highqualityevenly shaped briquettes in a unique closed end die system. The advantage of this is that minimum friction is generated so the machine has very low wear rates. The hydraulic system is controlled by a P.I.C. (programmable logic controller) which keeps all the rams in the correct sequence and optimises the motor power by operating a sequence of valves to reduce the oil flow as the pressure increases on each cycle. Combined with the inherently efficient design described earlier, this results in a very low motor power for a given output compared with other briquetting machines. The electronic control can maintain a constant briquette size despite variations in the materials. Particle size can be anything up to 50 mm, and for long fibrous materials a ram feeder is an optional extra. Our experienced enginners are always happy ti run special compressing tests in our workshops to give customers individual samples of their own materials. The regular shap of the briquettes makes them easy to stack and palletize. We also offer the option of having your company logo on the die so it is printed into all of your briquettes - an effective marketing tool! Cost Saving and Profitability Our Briquetting Machines are exceptionally strong and low maintenance. The presses are simple and compact and acan be mounted almost anywhere. The machines are designed to run 24 hours a day and, if the material to be briquetted is fed automatically into the hopper, then no operating personnel are required. The regular shap and consistent hard quality of the briquettes makes them simple to collect and stack. Our experience in this field guarantees that we can offer you a solution to your own waste disposal problems.
