How to Make Charcoal Briquettes

Charcoal is a kind of dark brown or black solid fuel made from incompletely combusted timber (usually
hardwood which includes oak, maple, teak, walnut, elm, aspen, mahogany, birch, and so on), wood
raw materials or palm fronds, coconut shell, while charcoal powder or charcoal dust is mainly made
from crop straws or forestry residues.

Why we need to make charcoal dust into briquettes?

The reason is that, raw charcoals are not in uniform shape, so they will not sell a good price. However,
when made into briquettes, they have the same shape and length that look well and have higher
price.

How to make charcoal briquettes from charcoal dust?

To make charcoal briquettes from waste charcoal powder, a set of charcoal briquetting machine is a
must. You may also need to add certain amount of coal binder.

powder or dust form. Thirdly, mix the charcoal powder with coal binder. After that, put into
the charcoal briquetting machine. Then, charcoal briquettes should be dried and packed for
sale. And finally, charcoal briquettes making finished.
