How are biomass briquettes made?
Biomass briquettes are made of two things: biomass material and pressure. That’s it. There are no chemicals or additives, making them a natural product.
Step 1
Biomass materials are moved to a pre-charging chamber by a screw conveyor.
Step 2
A pre-charger presses the material into the main pressing chamber.
Step 3
The main pressing ram compresses the material into the mold and forms the briquette into its final shape and density.
Step 4
Briquettes are pushed out of the machine one at a time.
