<p>Developing countries are very environment sensitive when it comes to activities such as energy&nbsp;generation, heat production and cooking. For this reason, we have come up with inventions to&nbsp;replace coal and charcoal which lets out harmful gases in the air and such inventions include the use&nbsp;of biomass such as in the Paddy straw Briquetting plant.fdf</p><p>The Straw Briquette Machine has high productivity and is easy to operate. It is a kind of&nbsp;environmental friendly and energy saving machine for biomass, which is very helpful to the rural&nbsp;areas. It can help farmers turn waste into wealth and make great profit.</p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:823/465;" src="https://hitechagroenergy.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/integrated-olant.png?w=825" alt="integrated olant" srcset="https://hitechagroenergy.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/integrated-olant.png 3088w, https://hitechagroenergy.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/integrated-olant.png?w=150&amp;h=85 150w, https://hitechagroenergy.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/integrated-olant.png?w=300&amp;h=169 300w, https://hitechagroenergy.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/integrated-olant.png?w=768&amp;h=434 768w, https://hitechagroenergy.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/integrated-olant.png?w=1024&amp;h=578 1024w" sizes="100vw" width="823" height="465"></figure><p><i>Integrates Briquetting Plant By HiTech Agro</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The BINDERLESS EXTRUSION BRIQUETTING PRESS by HiTech Agro is a reliable heavy duty ram type press designed for continuous operation, equipped with a sturdy crank gear, cross head and two flywheels. One of the fly wheels acts as a pulley and is driven by the main motor through flat belt. Forced lubrication is provided by oil circulating system with dual filtration and forced cooling. Material is continuously fed through a hopper by means of a vertical feeder with its own gear box and&nbsp;motor. Regulated feed to the press is provided by independently driven feeding system.</p><p>Dry ground or granulated material is fed to the top of the vertical feeder by screw conveyor. The&nbsp;vertical screw pre-compresses and forces the material downwards into pre-compression chamber.&nbsp;Here the material is forced by the ram through a die system into briquettes to the cooling line. The&nbsp;total operation is continuous and controlled from the main electrical panel.</p><p>The Paddy straw Briquetting process</p><ol><li>Crushing of the Straws</li></ol><p>The long and thick straws are crushed into smaller sizes in two stages.</p><ol><li>Drying</li></ol><p>The crushed straws are then dried; this could be by either sun drying or by use of a dryer where they&nbsp;were completely wet.

Out of the total, only 10-15 per cent&nbsp;is used in co-generation. Paddy Straw Briquetting has a potential of utilising around one million&nbsp;tonnes of paddy straw per annum by brick-kilns across the state of Punjab. Besides, it can also help in&nbsp;the socio-economic uplift of the farming community as a lot of paddy straw is burnt in the fields every&nbsp;year.</p><p>Importance of this technology</p><p>The machine is reliable and the process has the following desirable features:</p><ul><li>Energy efficient</li><li>High cost performance</li><li>High Production capacity</li><li>Produce low net greenhouse gases emission</li><li>Non-carbonaceous</li></ul><p>Paddy Straw briquetting technology has been considered in many parts of the world today, especially&nbsp;in areas where rice straw do well. It is environment friendly, energy efficient and cost effective.</p><p><strong>BUY WITH CONFIDENCE</strong></p><p><strong>&nbsp;</strong>We at <a href="http://hitechagro.org/">HiTech Agro</a>, stand behind our products and the quality with which they are made.
