In any manufacturing process, the production of waste is unavoidable. But instead of disposing of the residue, you can turn it into valuable energy by using an industrial briquette machine. This will save you space as well as transport costs, and you will be able to provide your own fuel for your industrial boilers. And as a bonus, you will profit from it rather than having expenses for waste management.
At C.F. Nielsen, we have a specialized briquetting solution developed for torrefied wood, which can replace coal in power plants. To replace coal, our machines can produce briquettes in diameters from 50 mm to 90 mm. You will obtain the highest capacity when using our BP6510 briquetting press, which produces a briquette in either 75 or 90 mm diameter. In case smaller pieces are required at the power plants, the briquettes can be shipped in bulk and shredded or down-sized.
Our machines can briquette torrefied wood at moisture levels as low as 2 %, but preferably 4-6 %, while also achieving a high density, between 1,1-1,2, which is higher than the density of regular biomass briquettes. This results in a high energy value at a bulk density between 500 and 650 kg/m3.
At C.F. Nielsen, we have tested torrefied raw materials from many different production plants all over the world, as well as sold plants for testing and production. This has enabled us to develop a unique application for torrefied wood that can down-size the raw materials through our precompression and die system. Our machines can handle raw materials above 100C, and they have a considerably lower power consumption per tonne than any alternative on the market.
