PALM EFB BRIQUETTE PRESS
EFB Briquette machine makes it possible, the waste produced during palm oil processing is crushed, dried, and compressed into high-calorific biomass fuel rods, enabling efficient energy recycling.
EFB BRIQUETTE MACHINE FOR SALE
The stamping type EFB briquetting machine is a heavy-duty machine designed to press high-density biofuels. Its key advantages include simple maintenance, ease of operation, and low energy consumption. Producing one ton of biomass fuel requires only about 30-40 kWh of energy, making it the most energy-efficient option compared to other fuel machinery.
EFB ( Empty palm fruit bunches) and oil residue from palm oil pressing are biomass wastes with high calorific value. Once crushed and dried, they can be formed into cylindrical biomass briquettes or pellets. These fuels can be supplied to power plants, cement plants, or used as alternatives to traditional fuels like gas and heavy oil.

PALM TREE WASTE EFB BRIQUETTE MACHINE TECHNICAL DETAILS
The mechanical stamping briquetting machine is composed of a feeding system, main briquetting machine, control cabinet, discharge cooling system, lubrication circulation cooling system, and a dust removal system. It is designed for 24-hour continuous, stable operation with an exceptionally low failure rate.
Be equipped with a high-inertia flywheel, 50% energy savings.
The main motor of the briquetting machine is fitted with inertia flywheels on both sides. These flywheels drive the cam on the main shaft, enabling a reciprocating motion. Due to the substantial inertia of the flywheels and the machine’s double-punch design, production capacity is increased while achieving over 50% energy savings.
Automatic PLC Control System
Our latest briquetting machine features an upgraded control system with PLC monitoring, allowing for one-click startup of the main unit. Additionally, it automatically shuts down to prevent damage in cases of overfeeding or other malfunctions, ensuring consistent and stable operation throughout the briquetting process.

Over the past two years, we have expanded our range of briquetting machines by introducing a 22-kilowatt mini model and a 160-kilowatt super-large model. The mini briquetting machine is primarily used for testing and demonstration projects, while the super-large version, weighing nearly 20 tons, is designed for large-scale briquette fuel production projects with space constraints.
Properties of Compressed Palm Fruit Bunches Briquettes
EFB briquettes are high in oil content, resulting in a caloric value exceeding 3,800 calories. However, similar to coconut shell briquettes, they produce a higher ash content during high-temperature combustion compared to sawdust briquettes, which may lead to coking issues. The likelihood of coking occurring depends on the specific usage conditions.
Fuel briquettes can primarily serve as substitutes for natural gas, heavy oil, coal, and other fuels. However, standard boilers require minor modifications to ensure they operate effectively when using biomass briquettes
HOW TO CONVERT EFB PALM TREE WASTE INTO FUEL BRIQUETTES?
Crushing EFB to powder sizes within 10 mm
The size of empty fruit bunches (EFB) is considerable, necessitating a two-stage crushing process: coarse crushing and fine crushing. Coarse crushing typically employs a continuous plate feeding integrated crusher, with a grab machine for material handling. The material is then finely crushed using a hammer mill. However, if the raw material has a high moisture content, both crushers will need to be customized accordingly.
Drying EFB to 15% moisture content after crushing
Palm tree is primarily planted in tropical regions, such as Malaysia and Indonesia, which experience high temperatures and humidity throughout the year. As a result, the waste generated from palm fruit bunches typically retains a moisture content exceeding 30%. Consequently, crushed empty palm fruit bunches require drying. Given their bulky, loose, and low-density characteristics, the dryer must be customized to accommodate the high output requirements.
Make EFB Briquettes by Piston Briquette Machine
The stamping briquetting machine is capable of compressing palm tree waste with sizes up to 10 mm (or 20 mm, depending on the characteristics of the raw fiber) into biomass briquettes. The density of these briquettes can reach 1.2g/cm3 or higher, with a bulk density of up to 650 kgs/m3. The briquette machine features a forced feeding system that efficiently feeds loose empty fruit bunches (EFB) into the molding cavity, thereby minimizing the risk of blockages and optimizing output.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why should empty fruit bunches (EFB) be processed into briquettes or pellets by briquette machine instead of being burned directly?
While it is true that pressing fuel pellets or briquettes incurs additional production costs, direct combustion has several disadvantages. For instance, the large size of EFB makes automatic feeding impractical. Additionally, the inconsistent moisture content of the raw materials can result in insufficient calorific value during combustion. Overall, briquetting or pelletizing offers a more stable and efficient solution.
In the process of crushing empty fruit bunches (EFB), is it preferable to use a crusher or a shredder?
We recommend utilizing a drum type crusher with chain feeder, as the drum crusher is specifically designed for biomass raw materials. This type of crusher operates at high speeds, resulting in significantly higher output compared to a twin-shaft shredder. Additionally, the presence of a screening mechanism ensures a more uniform output size.
Is it possible to produce empty fruit bunch (EFB) pellets with a diameter of 8-10 mm?
Absolutely. However, instead of using a briquetting machine, you should opt for a pellet machine. Both our flat die and ring die pellet machines are capable of producing EFB pellets. Please feel free to contact us for further assistance.
