Straw carbonization technology can soften organic cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin of crop straw under 200-300 degrees. Then, by adding appropriate adhesive and water, applying certain pressure, the straw will be solidified and pressed into straw briquettes. If use carbonization furnace, the straw briquettes can be further processed into straw charcoal briquettes which are also known as “Biological Coal”.

Let’s take China for an example. The current straw utilization rate is about 33% in China. Therefore, recycling crop straw resource has important meaning for resource saving, environment protection, increasing farmer income and promoting sustainable development. Recently, there are mainly three ways to take advantage of straw resource: power, animal feed, making charcoal briquettes. For power, it includes direct combustion, producing methane, carbonization, gasification, liquefaction (bio oil or ethanol) and electricity generation.
