Automatic Production Lines

Fully Automated Biomass Briquette Production Line

UT Machinery’s Biomass Briquette Production Line efficiently converts sawdust, rice husks, and straw into high-density, solid fuel sticks (round or square, no inner hole), ideal for industrial boilers and high-end heating.

Key Features:

  • High-density solid briquettes, cylindrical or square, no inner hole
  • Fully automated 24/7 operation for continuous production
  • Supports multiple biomass types: sawdust, rice husks, straw, etc.
  • Modular design for scalable production and low maintenance

Overview: Turn Waste into “Green Coal”

UT Machinery’s Biomass Briquette Production Line transforms forestry and agricultural residues—such as sawdust, wood chips, rice husks, and stalks—into high-density, solid fuel sticks. Engineered for 24/7 continuous operation, this line produces briquettes with superior density (1.2–1.4 g/cm³), longer burn time, and easier handling. These premium fuel sticks are ideal for industrial boilers, power plants, and luxury fireplaces.

Unlike standard briquetting equipment, our integrated biomass briquette press solution ensures consistent moisture control, uniform density, and maximum energy efficiency throughout the production process.

Optimized Process Flow (Engineering Edge)

Our turnkey line manages moisture, density, and material flow at every stage to deliver reliable, high-density solid briquettes:

Briquette Process Flow :

Raw Material Bin → Crusher / Pulverizer → Cyclone Dust Collector → Intermediate Storage Bin → Hot Air Furnace → Rotary Dryer → Dust Collector + Storage Bin → Distribution Bin → Briquette Machine

01

Raw Material Handling

High-capacity Raw Material Bins with automated feeders maintain a steady supply of biomass, ensuring uninterrupted production for industrial-scale operations.

02

Precision Size Reduction

The Crusher/Pulverizer reduces raw material to an optimal 3–5 mm size, essential for uniform, high-density briquetting.

03

Advanced Dust Management

An integrated Cyclone Dust Collector removes fine particulates, maintaining a clean and safe workspace compliant with global EHS standards.

04

Buffering System

The Intermediate Storage Bin balances material flow between crushing and drying, eliminating bottlenecks and ensuring continuous throughput.

05

Smart Thermal Control

The Hot Air Furnace preheats the biomass for the Rotary Dryer, lowering moisture content to the ideal 8–12% “Golden Ratio” for solid briquette formation.

06

Intelligent Distribution

The proprietary Distribution Bin evenly feeds dried biomass to multiple briquette machines, enabling scalable production while preserving material consistency.

07

High-Pressure Forming

Using Lignin-Plasticization Technology, the briquette machines produce 100% solid round or square fuel sticks without chemical binders. High pressure and temperatures above 300°C activate natural lignin as a binder.

Why Choose UT Machinery’s Production Line?

01

Modular Scalability

Start with two briquette machines and expand to six or more using the same drying system. The Distribution Bin allows growth while lowering initial CAPEX.

02

Proprietary Alloy Technology

Our core screws use a proprietary wear-resistant coating, lasting 3x longer than standard parts, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

03

Solid Briquette Advantage

Solid briquettes have a higher energy-per-volume ratio than hollow ones. They are easier to transport, stronger, and preferred for industrial power plants due to consistent burn rate.

04

Energy-Efficient Drying

The Rotary Dryer uses heat-recycling logic, reducing fuel consumption by up to 15% compared to traditional systems.

05

Global Compliance

Dual-stage dust collection ensures compliance with international environmental and safety standards, simplifying inspections and approvals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the ROI high for a biomass briquette line?
A: Yes. Most clients achieve a full ROI within 8–14 months. High-density solid briquettes sell at a premium in the global green energy market, outperforming loose biomass or hollow briquettes.

Q: Can I process different materials like rice husks, coconut shells, or straw?
A: Absolutely. Our system supports various biomass types. Frequency-conversion feeders allow adjustment for material density, moisture, and hardness.

Q: Do biomass briquettes require chemical binders?
A: No. Natural lignin in the biomass acts as a binder under high pressure and temperatures above 300°C, producing rock-solid, high-density briquettes.

Q: Are the briquettes solid or hollow?
A: All briquettes are 100% solid, available in round or square shapes, with no inner hole, ensuring superior strength and consistent burn.

Q: Can this line support industrial-scale production?
A: Yes. The modular, fully automated line is suitable for workshops, industrial plants, and biomass energy projects requiring high throughput.
