Coal/Bio Coal Moisture

Proper Coal Moisture Measurement

Coal has a wide moisture content range, which affects its value as fuel and determines how environmentally friendly it is to use. The production process is directly related to its quality and without the proper handling during production, the quality of coal is depleted, potentially causing increased pollution. By measuring the coal moisture content with NIR sensors and coal moisture sensors, this allows coal producers to regulate the correct moisture content, thereby creating a cleaner, higher-quality coal. To do this, accurate moisture testing instruments are necessary.

Using the CCS3000, you’ll be able to cut production costs while boosting product quality. The CCS3000 is low maintenance and energy efficient. It reduces start-up and downtime, and eliminates waste due to incorrect moisture content. For cleaner, more efficient fuel, the CCS3000 is your best option in coal moisture analyzers.

Bio Coal

Biomass Briquette OR Bio Coal is made from agricultural, wooden and forestry wastes by high compression process without adding any chemical, glue or binder. It is thus ‘binder-less’ technology product resulting in 100% natural eco-friendly, pollution-free solid fuel. Biomass briquettes are a renewable source of energy and avoid adding fossil carbon to the atmosphere. It can provide a similar amount of energy as low-grade fossil coal and 30% – 80% more energy than wood pellets

A popular biomass briquette takes a waste produce such as sawdust, groundnut shells, cotton stalk, castor seed shells etc.; compresses it and then extrudes it to make a reconstituted log that can replace firewood and coal. When burned it is a cleaner full, resulting in less pollution to the environment. A very low moisture and ash content around 8% makes briquette preferable solid fuel. Briquettes give much higher boiler efficiency because of low moisture and higher density; since bio-coal has high density, it saves transport costs and space in storage.

non-contact

Our equipment never comes into contact with the product, allowing for less waste

zero drift

Our sensors are guaranteed not to drift over time – which saves time and money

closed loop

Create a closed-loop process by tying a moisture sensor into your PLC. Full control over the line!

no recalibrations

We’ve mastered the art of moisture sensors – your unit will never need to be recalibrated for the same product twice!

What is the Solution?

The CCS3000 takes accurate measurements of coal moisture, with coal moisture sensors, (in % dry and % wet) allowing you to regulate moisture levels either automatically or manually. It also takes measurements of temperature, and other levels vital to coal production.

Assess

Locate the point in the production process in which measuring moisture will be the most crucial and beneficial. Identify how you will use the moisture measurement data for improvements and if it will tie into your PLC.

Remember this could involve more than one installation point!

The Process

Moisture content in coal processing is an essential factor to monitor as the lack or excess of moisture can impact the production and quality of the final product. Without the proper handling and production processes, the quality of coal is depleted, potentially causing increased pollution.
