Biochar pyrolysis equipment breaks down (lysis) biomass materials by heat (pyro) and turns them into biochar – a kind of green energy. With higher caloric value, long burning time, and minimal smoke emission, biochar finds applications in industrial smelting, agricultural fertilizer, daily cooking, etc. Consequently, this machine offers valuable waste reduction and resourcing solutions to different industries. Welcome to consult Beston Group for the ideal environmental project worth investing in.

Biochar Pyrolysis Equipment: Bring Value to Various Industries

Biochar pyrolysis machine helps to address waste management, energy needs, and environmental concerns across various industries. As sustainability and environmental awareness rise, the demand for this solution is expected to grow across multiple sectors. Here are some key industries that benefit from biochar machine:

Wood Processing Industry

Biochar production can reuse the waste generated in the wood processing industry to increase its added value. Moreover, wood pyrolysis into biochar promotes the circular economy in the wood industry. For instance, wood charcoal serves as fuel to dry raw wood, provides steam heat sources, etc.

Wood processing industry

Food Processing Industry

Converting waste from food processing into biochar can reduce the environmental problems associated with landfilling and incineration. It also brings good economic benefits, for instance, biochar made from coconut shells has applications in activated carbon, negative electrode materials, etc.

Food processing industry

Agriculture Planting Industry

This machine effectively solves the whereabouts of agricultural waste and reduces negative environmental impact. Moreover, returning carbonized materials to the field can improve the soil’s properties and fertility, thus promoting the agricultural recycling economy.

Agriculture planting industry

Palm Industry

Biochar pyrolysis process can convert palm residues generated in the palm oil industry into useful biochar. This helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The charcoal after pyrolysis of palm silk can serve as a soil conditioner to improve soil fertility, plant growth, and crop yields.

Biomass Materials Processed by Biochar Pyrolysis Machine

Biochar pyrolysis machine, also called biomass pyrolysis plant, can convert readily available organic materials such as agricultural waste and forestry residues into biochar. Examples include wood chips, sawdust, straws, rice husks, corn cobs, coconut shells, palm kernel shells, and many more.

Note: Key requirements for biomass feedstock include moisture content <20%; particle size <20mm; pourable and free-flowing.

Biomass Processed by Biochar Pyrolysis Machine

How to Make Biochar with Biochar Pyrolysis Machine?

01 Feeding: The first step is to input the biomass into the pyrolysis reactor. A screw feeder efficiently transports the biomass that meets the feeding requirements into the inner cylinder of the reactor.

02 Heating and Pyrolysis: Heat the reactor of biochar pyrolysis equipment to the target temperature. At 280℃- 350℃, biomass undergoes dehydration, demethylation, and volatile release reactions, producing charcoal and syngas in the reactor.

03 Syngas Recycling: Then, syngas will rise and enter the spay dedusting system to remove the sulfur components; after that, syngas will be further processed by the condenser to extract tar and wood vinegar; finally, syngas is recycled to heat the biochar pyrolysis reactor and dryer device by the draft fan.

04 Cooling Discharging: The produced high-temperature charcoal is cooled down through heat exchange with cold water. Then it achieves the designated spot through the screw auto discharger. The final temperature of the charcoal will be reduced to below 45°C.

05 Exhaust Gas Treatment: The hot smoke from the reactor is purified in the cyclone emission dedustor, and then passes through the fuel condenser. It is further cleaned in the dedusting system using water washing, water spray, ceramic ring adsorption, and activated carbon adsorption. Finally, the expelled exhaust gas will meet EU standards.

What about the Quality of the Produced Biochar?

Investors may be interested in the ingredients and quality of the produced biochar, as this directly impacts its future application and marketing. Taking peanut shells as raw materials, Beston Group presents the latest 2024 test report for the biochar produced by our biochar pyrolysis machine. The following results are for reference only.

Note: Different types, moisture, sizes of raw materials, and technical parameters will impact the biomass pyrolysis results.

Tested Data

Ash Content (10.5%): This represents the proportion of inorganic material left over after pyrolysis. A lower ash content indicates a more complete pyrolysis of biochar, producing higher-purity charcoal.

Volatile Matter Content (11.8%): This measures the proportion of gases and vapors released during pyrolysis. A lower volatile matter content suggests a higher degree of pyrolysis, leading to more stable charcoal.

Fixed Carbon Content (76.8%): This is the proportion of carbon that remains after pyrolysis. A higher fixed carbon content indicates a more effective biochar pyrolysis process, with better thermal properties and stability.

Calorific Value (5920-6570 kcal/kg): This indicates the energy released per kilogram of charcoal when burned. A higher calorific value means the charcoal has greater burning efficiency and provides more heat.

Analysis Conclusion

These data show that the biochar pyrolysis equipment effectively carbonizes peanut shells. It can produce high-quality charcoal with low ash and volatile matter contents, and high fixed carbon content and calorific value. That means investors have nothing to worry about the future sales potential of biochar. The investment holds the promise of economic return.
