Abstract
To compact bio-mass to make a dense solid (without the use of additional resins or adhesives), a rotating screw impeller compresses the feed material and heats it by sliding friction. After some cooling, the product becomes completely solid, with a density in excess of 1000kg/cubic metre. The compactor may be driven by the power take-off shaft of a standard tractor. <IMAGE>
Description
"A METHOD OF COMPACTING STRAW (AND OTHER BIO-MASS)
TO MAKE FUEL" DescriDtion My straw compactor makes use of a specially
adapted rotary compressor, driven by the
power-take-off shaft of a standard tractor.
Chopped straw (or sawdust, chaff, etc.) is
fed continuously from a feed hopper. The
straw becomes heated (by friction from the
rotary motion) and highly compressed, and
is then extruded as a dense solid from the
exit nozzle, and breaks off into logs about
six inches long, which drop into a
collecting box, or on to a bagging machine
for commercial fuel distribution.
Claims (1)
- Claims There are two other machines to myknowledge that compress straw to make fuel.The first is very large, static, and extremely expensive. A linear ram compresses the straw into a tapered nozzle, and the friction in passing through this nozzle generates heat. The problem with this method of generating heat is that in ormer to raise the temperature sufficiently, the pressures required have to be enormous, and the machine becomes heavy and expensive. My method of heating, by using sliding friction via a rotating impeller, enables lower pressures to be used, so that the machinery is much lighter and cheaper, and can easily be mounted behind a small tractor. The second machine is very large, heavy (ten tonnes) and expensive, and compresses the straw into briquettes of only medium density, using cupped indentations in contra-rotating cylinders. Very little additional heat is applied in this process, resulting in briquettes of only medium density. My machine is much lighter, and produces a much higher density product.
