(Test conducted by PelletIndia.com) Ring Die Pellet Mill at different phases for achieving optimal compression, density, GCV, moisture, and durability: 1. Temperature Phases in Pellet Formation First Phase (70°C): Purpose: At this stage, the temperature is moderate as the raw material is still in the initial stage of compression. Compression: Low to moderate pressure helps in forming the pellets while maintaining structural integrity. Moisture Content: Evaporation starts, and moisture gradually reduces to an optimal level. Pellet Density: The pellet density begins to increase as the material is compacted in the die hol [...]

1. Charcoal Production Process: Pyrolysis: Charcoal production involves pyrolyzing biomass at high temperatures ranging from 500°C to 700°C in the absence of oxygen. Stages of Pyrolysis: Drying Phase (up to 150°C): Removes moisture content. Decomposition Phase (150°C–500°C): Breakdown of hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin into volatile gases and tar. Carbonization Phase (above 500°C): Formation of fixed carbon (charcoal) as volatile substances are driven off. Chemical Properties: High Fixed Carbon Content: Typically 70–90%, resulting in a dense energy source. Low Volatile Matter: Less than 15%, leading to c [...]
