DST has committed in renewable energy sector at Malaysia, we has set our target to provide more

choices for biomass energy resources to local and worldwide market. We have heavily involved in supplying of EFB pellet, saw dust pellet and biomass palm briquette. On the other hand, we do study with the customer need in order to supply more choices of biomass products for the market. 25mm diameter of EFB briquette is one of our latest biomass energy resources.

Revolution of EFB Briquette

Briquette referring to larger diameter biomass commodity whereby pellet is always refer to small size such as below 10mm diameter.

Large EFB Palm Briquette.

The original palm briquette is manufacturing into 70-80mm diameter. Through practical application, we notice many of the briquette being wasted as incomplete combustion happened in the biomass chamber.

Hollow Type EFB Palm Briquette.

The dense inner part is the area always is hard in combustion because of insufficient air flow. In order to improve the situation, pressed machine has been re-design whereby the briquette comes with an hollow ID. The hollow type of EFB briquette does help the improve of combustion.

Smaller size EFB palm briquette.

25mm diameter is one of the smaller size briquette. EFB palm fibre length has been studied and calculated before the 25mm diameter being determined. The 25mm EFB palm briquette is one of the optimum briquetting process which able to maintain smoother briquetting process.

Why 25mm EFB Briquette?

The 25mm EFB briquette is developed with a few objectives:

Suitable to most biomass input grating system.

The smaller of briquette is definitely more forgiving while coming to biomass boiler input grate system. Most of the industrial biomass boiler is able adapting to this new size.

Optimum in briquetting process.

25mm is the balance between briquette manufacturer and user. The dry EFB fibre can pressed into EFB briquette with only shredded process.

Energy retention in combustion process.

The briquette is able to retain heat during the combustion process while also ensure complete combustion, waste of incomplete briquette is minimize.

Who needs 25mm EFB Briquette?

EFB briquette or palm briquette is always a good energy source for biomass power plant. The existing biomass plant who using larger briquette can easily converted to 25mm diameter EFB briquette without any changing in process.

Biomass boiler who currently using palm kernel shell, shredded EFB fibre or pellet are suitable for this EFB briquette.

We welcome any inquiry about this 25mm diameter EFB briquette.

General Introduction of Biomass Briquettes

Many readers are new to biomass briquettes. We should have heard about coal briquette which use in many power plant boiler. Briquette technology will give direct impact on coal performanc

Palm Fibre Briquette – Biomass Briquette

e, same for biomass briquette.

In coal briquette, binder is added so that the coal powder will be compressed becoming a large scale of composition. A briquette is definitely better in term of actual heating as it will retain the heat. In Malaysia, the biomass industry has developed biomass briquette and biomass pellet for power plant industry. Palm fiber briquette is the biomass briquettes manufacture at Malaysia.

Biomass Briquette also a Renewable Energy

Raw material use for briquette is determining if the briquette is biomass. In most of the briquette, people are using leaf, saw dust, straw and branch pressing for briquette. Those are biomass material hence the briquette also classified as biomass briquette.

In Malaysia, we have another source of biomass, palm fibre. The palm fiber will be used to fabricate palm fiber briquette. The palm fiber will be inserted to the briquette machine and after compress; a briquette with diameter around 70mm, 200mm length is fabricated.

Biomass Briquettes and Pellet

There is an EFB pellet or biomass pellet which also made from palm fibre, both are available for biomass commodity market. EFB pellet is normal a pellet size with diameter 6-8mm, however a briquette come in larger size around 50-80mm for diameter.

There are many comparison studies between biomass briquettes and pellet however both should serve similar purpose. Because of it smaller size, biomass pellet is suitable for many industrial biomass boilers without special design in input grate. Biomass boiler field engineer should check the input grate if it is suitable for biomass briquettes which come larger in size. In most case, we could commonly see biomass briquette in biomass power plant.

Advantage of Biomass Briquettes

Biomass briquette is very good in term of retaining heat for the power plant boiler. The dense inner core may able to maintain consistent burning rate. However the dense core also becomes the discrepancy because of insufficient burning.

There are other designs of biomass briquette with inner hole, this is mainly to improve the air flow and ensure sufficient burning in the boiler.

DST is supplying several type of biomass briquette in the market, currently we are focusing in palm fiber briquettes for biomass boiler. For interested party, you are welcome to contact us or drop us a mail and check about our biomass briquettes.
