Raw Materials

Briquetting Industry
Biomass briquettes are used as a replacement
for the traditional fossil fuel such as coal,
gasoline, and gas.

These are produced from the raw materials such

as wood wastes and agricultural wastes through
the processing procedures such as crushing,
drying, mixing, compressing, etc.
Every year millions of tons of agricultural waste
are generated. These are either non-used or
burnt inefficiently in their loose form which
causes air pollution. Handling and transporting
of these loose materials is difficult & costly due
to their low bulk density. These wastes can
provide a renewable source of energy when
converted into high-density fuel briquettes
without adding any binder or chemical.

Why Briquetting ?
Just look at below figures
Briquettes have high specific density
1200 Kg/m3 and bulk density 800 Kg/
m3 compared to 60 to 180 Kg/m3 of
loose Bio-mass. These can stand the
ardors of long distance transportation
effects, Loading/unloading effects, and
transportation costs are much less and
storage requirement is drastically
reduced making organized storage.
Compared to fire wood or loose Biomass, briquettes give much higher
boiler efficiency because of low
moisture and higher density.

Best thing about Briquettes

Briquettes are cheaper than coal.
High sulfur content of oil and coal, when burnt, pollutes the environment. There is no
sulfur in Briquettes & hence no environment pollution.
Bio-mass briquettes have a higher practical thermal value and much lower ash content.

There is no fly ash when burning briquettes.

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 briquettes.
Briquettes are usually produced near the consumption centers and supplies do not
depend on erratic transport from long distances.
