What equipment is needed for biochar pyrolysis?

Biochar pyrolysis requires specialized equipment to efficiently convert biomass into high-quality biochar. If you want to start a biochar pyrolysis business, it is crucial to understand the core components. The equipments are needed for biochar pyrolysis have Raw material preparation machine, pyrolysis reactor, gas handling equipment, cooling equipment, biochar processing equipment, control equipment. These equipments have the advantages of safety, environmental protection, and high efficiency, and can provide customized solutions for various production needs. Next, we will introduce you in detail the equipment required for DOING biomass to biochar pyrolysis process.

1. Raw material preparation equipment

Shredder: The preparation of high-quality biochar begins with precise raw material preparation. Generally, raw materials such as coconut shells, bamboo and palm shells can be equipped with Shredder to reduce large biomass materials into smaller pieces; while some small-particle raw materials such as wood chips and rice husks do not need to be equipped. In addition, DOING's shredder adopts a dual-axis system, which can quickly and accurately process various biomass materials. Its adjustable cutting blade can crush the raw materials to the optimal particle size (10-50 mm) to ensure the uniform pyrolysis of subsequent biochar.

Dryer: DOING's rotary dryer uses a multi-layer lifting plate structure to increase the contact area between the biomass and the hot air. Compared with traditional models, it improves heat transfer efficiency and shortens drying time. The temperature control range of this dryer is 80 - 180°C, which can handle high-moisture raw materials and reduce the moisture content to 8 - 12% required for pyrolysis.

2. Pyrolysis reactor (core component)

DOING's pyrolysis reactor is the core of its biochar production system and adopts a continuous operation mode to adapt to different production scales. The double-layer drum design, the inner drum completes the primary carbonization, and the outer drum achieves deep processing. Made of heat-resistant alloy steel or stainless steel, it can withstand high temperatures of 400 - 700°C for a long time. The internal spiral blade design ensures continuous mixing of biomass and promotes uniform heat distribution, thereby increasing the yield of biochar.

3. Gas treatment equipment
