Establishing a coal briquetting plant requires a large investment, including equipment purchase, site leasing or purchase, personnel hiring, etc. In preliminary estimates, the total investment may reach several million yuan or even higher. At the same time, operating costs cannot be ignored, including raw material procurement, equipment maintenance, employee salaries, transportation costs, etc., which all need to be taken into consideration. Therefore, it is crucial for investors to calculate the payback period of their investment.

Raw materials for coal briquetting plant

The production of coal briquettes requires a variety of raw materials, the most important of which is coal. Coal quality standards are critical to the production of coal briquettes. Generally speaking, the fixed carbon content of high-quality coal should be higher than 80%, the moisture content should be lower than 10%, the ash content should not exceed 5%, and the volatile content should be between 7% and 10%. In addition, binders are also indispensable raw materials in production. They are usually mainly petrochemical products, and their quality requires that their viscosity, plasticity, thermal stability and other indicators must meet standards. As for the procurement channels for raw materials, coal briquetting plants generally choose to sign long-term supply contracts with large coal companies or suppliers to ensure the stability of raw material supply and consistency of quality. For binders, they are mainly purchased through the chemical market.

Key mechanical equipment and technical parameters required for coal briquetting plant

The operation of the coal briquetting plant relies on various precision mechanical equipment and technical parameters. First of all, the briquetting machine is the key. It needs to be able to finely compress coal into blocks of predetermined shapes and specifications. This kind of machine usually requires sufficient pressure and stability to ensure that the pressed coal is hard and regular in texture. Next, the screening machine is also one of the essential equipment. Its task is to screen the raw coal before the pressing process and remove particles that do not meet the requirements to ensure the quality of the final product. In addition, it may also include auxiliary equipment such as conveyor belts and crushers, as well as technical parameters for precise control of various processes. These mechanical and technical elements together ensure that the production process of the coal briquetting plant is efficient and stable, and meets the strict standards of industrial production.

Detailed explanation of the production process of coal briquetting plant

The production process of coal briquettes is a delicate and complex process, which starts with the in-depth processing of raw coal. First, the particle size of raw coal needs to be adjusted through crushing, screening and other steps to make it reach a particle size suitable for pressing. This step is crucial because it directly determines the quality of subsequent pressed products.

Next, the adjusted pulverized coal is fed into the press for pressing. In this process, pulverized coal is pressed into briquettes of a certain density and shape. This stage requires strict control of the pressing force and time to ensure the stability and uniformity of the coal briquettes.

Finally, the pressed coal blocks are cooled and packaged. During the cooling process, it is necessary to prevent cracks in the coal due to rapid temperature changes. During the packaging process, you need to consider the transportation and storage of coal to ensure that it will not be damaged during transportation and storage. At the same time, you must also consider environmental factors and choose recyclable or environmentally friendly packaging materials.
