Briquetting Plant - Fire logs - Consumer briquettes - Mechanical press

Briquetting Plant for production of 1800 - 2800 kg/hour of Consumer Briquettes from Softwood or Hardwood waste...
We recommend a twin line with two BP 5510 HD or two BP 6510 HD briquetting presses with a 8-12 m3 dosing silo or in combination with a large silo including automatic discharge system.
Requirements for raw material
• Particle size has to be less than 15x5x2 mm,
otherwise a grinding process has to be introduced. A hammer mill
with 10-15 mm screen size will normally give the requested particle size.
• Moisture content of the raw material should preferably be in the range 10--12%
otherwise a drying process or moisture increasing system has to be introduced.
• Raw material must be suitable for briquetting and tested if any doubt.
Testing of raw material
We are ready to perform a test briquetting based on you supplying us actual dry raw material, with correct particle size and moisture content. The test will show the expected quality of the final product and let us determine, whether any additives need to be added.
Storage facility for dry raw material
Normally we can combine our solution with your existing or planned storage solution, whether this is a large silo, a bunker or similar.
Briquetting control system
A frequency controlled dosing screw feeds an exact amount of the raw material into the press in a steady flow. Level switches in the silo send signals to the conveyor when refilling of the silo is required. All vital functions of the press are controlled by the advanced and operator-friendly BBCS or ABCS Control System including a Siemens PLC. This system is capable of keeping the set capacity within +/- 50 kg/hour even with fluctuating density of the raw material.
