Which is better, machine-made charcoal or charcoal?

Machine-made charcoal is machine-made charcoal, while traditional charcoal is solid fuel obtained by incomplete combustion of wood. The difference between them mainly lies in the source of raw materials, manufacturing principle and combustion technology. Compared with traditional charcoal, machine-made charcoal is the mainstream in the market, mainly because machine-made charcoal is more environmentally friendly and cleaner than charcoal, and it also has certain advantages in convenience of use and combustion performance. Let's look at the difference between machine-made charcoal and charcoal. What is the difference between machine-made charcoal and charcoal?

There are two kinds of charcoal, one is primary charcoal, that is, traditional charcoal, which is made by burning wood; The other is machine-made charcoal, which is extruded from sawdust, so what's the difference between the two?

1, what is charcoal?

Charcoal is a dark brown or black porous solid fuel left by incomplete combustion of wood or wood raw materials or pyrolysis under the condition of air isolation. It is an impure amorphous carbon, which keeps the original structure of wood, and tar remains in the pores.

2. What is machine-made charcoal?

Machine-made charcoal is a kind of carbon rod made of sawdust, that is, machine-made charcoal.

3. The difference between machine-made charcoal and charcoal

(1) Different sources of raw materials: machine-made charcoal is mainly made of one or more raw materials such as rice husk, peanut husk, cotton husk, corn cob, corn stalk, sorghum stalk, bean stalk, sawdust, sawdust, shavings, pine bark, coconut husk, etc. Traditional charcoal is wood, and fruit wood is commonly used.

(2) The manufacturing principle is different: Machine-made charcoal is a kind of synthetic fuel rod, which is made of wood-containing scraps and extruded in a machine. Charcoal is made by direct carbonization of wood at high temperature.

(3) The combustion process is different: machine-made charcoal is compressed from various materials, so it burns slowly, that is, it burns for a long time, but the combustion value is low and the heat generated is not very large. Charcoal has a single composition, a large combustion value and a lot of heat, but it burns fast and lasts for a long time without mechanism.

Second, which is better, machine-made charcoal or charcoal?

Traditional charcoal is gradually banned because it needs to cut down trees and carbonize at high temperature. Most of the charcoal on the market now is machine-made charcoal. Compared with charcoal, machine-made charcoal has the following advantages:

1, more environmentally friendly

Do not cut down trees, use wood products waste to produce, turn waste into treasure, and do not destroy the ecological environment.

2, the energy is higher

The fixed carbon content of machine-made charcoal is about 80%, and its calorific value is 7500-8000kcal/kg, while the fixed carbon content of charcoal is low, and its calorific value is about 6500kcal/kg.

3. Cleaner and more hygienic

Machine-made charcoal has no smoke and no charcoal head, and there is no spark when burning. When burning, the residual ash naturally falls and does not float. After burning about 3% or 6% ash, the residual ash is less and combustible.

4. It is more convenient to use.

Machine-made charcoal is uniform in length and size, and its hollow or solid structure is reasonable, which is beneficial to combustion and use.

5. Low water content.

The moisture content of machine-made charcoal is about 5%, which is lower than ordinary charcoal and has better combustion performance.

To sum up, machine-made charcoal is superior to ordinary charcoal in performance and environmental protection.
