Carbonizers have specific requirements for the particle size and moisture content of the feed, which are intended to ensure the smooth progress of the carbonization process and the quality of the final product. The following is a detailed analysis of these requirements:
Feed Particle Size Requirements
• Particle Size Range: Carbonizers are mainly suitable for carbonizing relatively small raw materials, and their particle size requirements are generally not more than 15mm. This is because larger particle sizes may lead to uneven carbonization, affecting the carbonization effect and product quality. Specifically, raw materials such as walnut shells, rice husks, crushed straw, coconut shells, etc., need to ensure that the particle size meets the requirements before entering the carbonizer.
• Raw Material Type: Different carbonizer models and processes may have different requirements for the particle size of the raw materials. Therefore, when selecting a carbonizer, it is necessary to select the appropriate equipment based on the specific raw material type and particle size distribution.
Feed Moisture Requirements
• Moisture Content: Carbonizers also have strict requirements for the moisture content of raw materials. Generally speaking, the moisture content of raw materials should be controlled within a certain range to ensure the stability of the carbonization process and product quality. The specific moisture requirements may vary depending on the type of raw material and the model of the carbonizer, but it is generally recommended that the moisture content does not exceed 25%. For certain types of raw materials, such as rice husks and other materials that are relatively dry, the moisture content may be lower.
• Moisture control method: For raw materials with high moisture content, they need to be dried before entering the carbonizer to reduce their moisture content. This can be achieved by natural drying, mechanical drying, etc. At the same time, during the carbonization process, it is also necessary to pay attention to controlling the temperature and time to avoid adverse effects caused by excessive moisture.
• Impact on charcoal making effect: The moisture content of the raw material has a significant impact on the charcoal making effect. Excessive moisture may cause a large amount of steam to be generated during the carbonization process, affecting the control of the carbonization temperature and the quality of the carbonization product. Excessive moisture may cause incomplete carbonization or the carbonization product to be too dry and fragile. Therefore, reasonable control of the moisture content of the raw material is one of the keys to ensure the carbonization effect.
In summary, the carbonizer has clear requirements for the particle size and moisture of the feed. When choosing a carbonizer, it is necessary to select the appropriate equipment according to the specific type and characteristics of the raw material, and strictly control the particle size and moisture content of the raw material during the carbonization process to ensure the stability of the carbonization process and the quality of the final product.
