With the growing popularity of barbecue around the globe, the need for premium barbecue charcoal has surged. For both hobbyists and investors, learning to create BBQ charcoal balls can be a fulfilling project. This article outlines the necessary raw materials, manufacturing processes, and equipment required to produce barbecue charcoal balls.

Raw materials for Barbeque charcoal balls

• Wood types, including hardwoods, mixed woods, and fruitwoods, can be carbonized to create natural charcoal without the need for additives. Additionally, wood chips like sawdust, shavings, and bamboo chips are useful for producing machine-made charcoal briquettes.
• Nut shells and kernels, such as those from black olives, walnuts, olives, date palms, and coconut shells, can be transformed into charcoal that emits a unique aroma. These materials contribute a special flavor to the barbecue experience.

Production process of BBQ charcoal briquettes

Carbonization of raw materials

This process involves heating wood, nut shells, or wood chips in a carbonization equipment until they turn into charcoal. It’s essential to keep the moisture content of the raw material at or below 15% and to carefully manage the carbonization time and temperature to produce high-quality charcoal.

Дробление и смешивание

After carbonizing the raw materials, the next step is to grind them into a fine charcoal powder. This powder is then combined with a binder and other components to create a uniform mixture. The binder plays a crucial role in shaping the charcoal into a spherical form.

Forming and extrusion

The mixture is then processed in a charcoal dough machine to create uniform charcoal balls. The size and shape of these balls can be tailored to meet market demand and customer preferences.

Equipment required for the production

1. Carbonization ovens play a crucial role in the initial carbonization process of raw materials. There are vertical, horizontal, and continuous charcoal carbonization furnaces available, and the choice among them depends on the production scale as well as the type and size of the raw materials being used.
2. Charcoal crushers are utilized to grind the carbonized raw material into a fine powder. This powder is vital for creating a smooth and uniform mixture that can be easily shaped into pellets.
3. The charcoal powder mixer is designed to blend charcoal powder with water and binders. This machine guarantees that the mixture is consistent and ready for molding.
4. The BBQ charcoal ball making machine is responsible for shaping the mixture into uniform charcoal balls. We offer a range of models that can produce balls in various sizes and shapes.
