Continuous lump charcoal production furnace CARBON-FLOW

1. Wood Storage and Handling: Wood is delivered by motor transport, avoiding dependence on railway logistics. The storage area allows for up to six months of wood stock, facilitated by a specialized manipulator for efficient handling.

2. Automated Logging: The system automatically processes logs into chops suitable for drying and pyrolysis, with a focus on reducing waste and optimizing material use.

3. Advanced Drying Techniques: Wood is dried using a vertical dryer that utilizes the heat from pyrolysis gases, enhancing energy efficiency and reducing operational costs.

4. Efficient Pyrolysis: The heart of the system, our pyrolysis process is facilitated by a vertical retort, which operates with minimal external energy input. The process is finely controlled to optimize the production of high-quality charcoal.

5. Gas Treatment and Utilization: All gases and by-products from pyrolysis are fully utilized either for energy production or treated to minimize environmental impact.

6. Energy Recovery: Excess heat is captured through a waste-heat boiler, contributing to the system’s energy efficiency and providing steam for operational needs.

7. Product Handling and Packaging: Post-pyrolysis, the charcoal is cooled, screened, and packaged with minimal exposure to air to prevent contamination and ensure product quality.

Capacity: The system supports a production capacity ranging from 300 to 1000 tonnes of charcoal per month, making it suitable for both small and large-scale operations.

Automation and Control: Equipped with state-of-the-art control systems, Pyro-Carbon-Flow allows for precise monitoring and adjustment of all processes, ensuring optimal performance and product quality.

Sustainability: By integrating complete gas utilization and energy recovery, the system not only meets but exceeds modern environmental production standards.

The following solutions are used in the unit

● Production process is provided by its own heat due to the complete combustion of the wood pyrolysis products in the large furnace. The resulting flue gases have an enthalpy

● This enthalpy is sufficient to effect preliminary wood drying, to provide pyrolysis process and charcoal tempering process and also to produce heat energy for household and technical needs

● The same solution provides the recycling of liquid phase which is formed during the wood pyrolysis. The liquid phase recycling eliminates a significant environmental problem of getting acid residues in the soil and wastewater

● Increased charcoal yield is achieved by automatic control of wood pyrolysis temperature and by strict control of oxygen content in the coolant and cooling gases

● Disposal of excess heat is provided by the installation of heat-recovery boiler and steam turbine, if generation of electricity is needed and recycling of waste

The charcoal-burning plant includes:

● vertical kiln of shaft type;

● a vertical twin wood dryer;

● recovery-boiler and a furnace for the pyrolysis products burning;

● other equipment is in accordance with agreed specifications.
