As a by-product in agricultural production, peanut shells are often regarded as waste. However, with the improvement of environmental awareness and the development of resource recycling technology, peanut shells are gradually developed into a renewable energy material. Among them, peanut shell briquettes(Peanut Shell Briquette Press), as an efficient biomass fuel, have attracted wide attention because of the high calorific value and low pollution. Then, what is the specific technological process from peanut shells to peanut shell briquettes?

1. Raw material collection and preliminary treatment

First, a large number of peanut shells need to be collected. Peanut shells generally come from agricultural production or food processing plants. The collected peanut shells may contain impurities, such as soil, pebbles and other plant residues, so preliminary screening and cleaning are needed to ensure the purity of raw materials.

2. Drying treatment

Peanut shells contain a certain amount of water. If they are directly briquetted, it will not only affect the quality of briquetting, but also lead to incomplete combustion. Therefore, peanut shells must be dried to reduce the moisture to a reasonable range (generally between 10% and 15%). The drying method can be natural drying or mechanical drying.

3. Crushing

The volume of dried peanut shells is large, which is not conducive to the subsequent briquetting operation. Therefore, it is necessary to use a crusher to crush shells into small particles or powder. This step can not only improve the density of raw materials, but also enhance the forming effect of briquetting.

4. Briquetting

The crushed peanut shell particles are sent to a professional briquette machine. Under the action of high temperature and high pressure, peanut shell particles are compressed into solid blocks with regular shape and high density. Common briquette shapes are cylindrical, square or other customized shapes. The briquette machine is usually equipped with an automatic control system to ensure production efficiency and product quality.

5. Cooling and packaging

The temperature of pressed peanut briquettes fresh from the machine is high, so it needs to be cooled to further improve the hardness and strength. After cooling, the briquettes will be packaged uniformly, which is convenient for storage and transportation.

Through the above technological process, peanut shells have been successfully transformed into environmentally friendly and efficient fuel products. This not only found a new way to use agricultural waste, but also provided important support for the development of renewable energy. In the future, with the progress of technology, the production technology of peanut shell briquettes will be more efficient and contribute more to the development of green energy.
