How to Make Charcoal from Wood?
01 Prepare the Wood
To start, keep the wood into pieces sized 5-8mm and reduce its moisture content to below 15%. Beston Group provides crusher and dryers to help you meet these requirements efficiently.
02 Wood Pyrolysis Reaction
Automatic screw belt conveyor feed the prepared wood into the reactor, a sealed low-oxygen environment.
At temperatures between 380℃- 450℃, it causing the volatile substances in the wood to release while retaining the solid carbonaceous material, which forms charcoal.
03 Syngas Recovery and Flue Gas Dedusting
During wood pyrolysis process, the generated flue gas contains rich combustible syngas. After purification, the syngas are reused as a heat source to power the main furnace. Waste flue gas after multiple dedusting will be safely emitted.

Key Applications of Wood Biochar: in Carbon Removal and Fuel Fields
I. Carbon Removal Field
Soil Improvement: Decarbonization in Agriculture
By incorporating biochar into the soil, it can:
- store carbon stabily in soil; generates carbon credits that can be traded
- improve soil structure and nutrient content
Specific Application Scope: Farms, plantations, and forestry areas.
Biochar Animal Feed: Decarbonization of Animal Husbandry
Research has shown that adding biochar to animal feed can reduce methane emissions from cattle stomachs by 10% to 20%. Biochar works in the following ways:
- optimize the digestive process of ruminants, thereby reducing methane production in the gastrointestinal tract.
- adsorb and remove harmful substances from the feed, improving animal health.
Building Material: Decarbonization of Construction
Wood-based biochar is increasingly being used in the construction industry as part of carbon-negative building materials. Its use in sustainable construction provides multiple advantages:
- Biochar’s ability to store carbon for long periods helps reduce the overall carbon footprint of construction materials.
- By incorporating biochar, building materials can become more environmentally friendly, contributing to a more sustainable construction sector.
Act as reducing agent: Decarbonization of Metal Smelting
Biochar also plays a key role in the metal smelting industry by acting as a reducing agent in the extraction of metals. Here’s how it works:
- Biochar, particularly charcoal derived from it, has a high carbon content. It captures oxygen molecules from metal ores, helping to reduce metal oxides into pure metals in the smelting process.
- By replacing fossil fuels traditionally used in metal smelting, biochar helps lower the carbon emissions associated with metal production, contributing to decarbonization of this energy-intensive industry.
I. Fuel Field
Industrial Fuel Energy
Wood charcoal, with excellent combustion characteristics, is a sustainable energy source for industrial production. It reduces reliance on traditional fuels and lowers carbon emissions.
Specific application scenarios: Energy-consuming industries like power plants, boilers
Hookah/BBQ Charcoal Processing
High-quality charcoal produced using briquette machines is ideal for hookah and barbecue purposes, offering excellent flavor for cooking and leisure activities.
Specific application scenarios: Parties, picnics, etc.
Superior Designs of Wood to Charcoal Machine
