Bio-Charcoal

Bio-charcoal is a solid fuel made by heating organic material, such as plant matter and agricultural residues, in a low-oxygen environment. This process, called carbonisation, converts biomass into a carbon-rich material that can be used for cooking and heating. Its properties depend on the feedstock and production method.

Carbonisation

Binder Preparation

Plant materials left over from farming, such as crop stalks, leaves, husks and other residues.

Biomass is heated in a low-oxygen environment, causing it to break down into carbon-rich charcoal..

Starch and water are heated together to form a paste used as a binding agent.

Binder Blending

Grinding

Charcoal powder is combined with binder and mixed thoroughly, creating a consistent, damp mixture.

Ball Production

The mixture is hand-rolled into balls, which are then left outdoors to dry naturally.
