subject: Setting Up Your Own Briquetting Plant [print this page] India is continuously moving towards the progress and setting up of more and more industries is contributing a lot to its growth. Almost all the industries discrete some sort of waste material. These materials harm the environment but the invention of briquetting machines have made it possible to make this useless material into useful raw material that can be further used.
Briquetting is a process of compressing the chosen raw material under extreme pressure. These machines turn powdery or granule raw material into large size to make it easy for transportation. If you are thinking of setting up or starting your own briquetting plant then you are going to make your money worth.
Briquettes are also known as white coal is a perfect fuel which substitutes fire, coal, wood lignite, including some other fuels for heating steam generation. Its demand is increasing as people are observing a scarcity in fuels like wood and coal. Briquetting machine price is justifiable if compared with the benefits it provides to the manufacturers. Due to environment friendly nature of these machines one can clearly analyze a bright future of this industry. These briquettes can be used as a conventional fuel in several fields:
Furnace and Foundries
It can be effectively used for melting and heating of such metals that require melting point less than 1000 d/cel.
Commercial and Residential Heating
These briquettes are used to generate heat in winters in cold areas, canteens, hotels, cafeterias and other household kitchen appliances.
Brick Kilns
It is the complete substitute of steam coal.
Boilers
Briquettes manufactured by briquetting plant can be used in the boilers of sugar mills, lamination and leather industries, dyeing houses, paper mills, food processing machines, solvent extraction plants, oil extraction units and many other names to add in the list.
There are huge benefits that the Govt. of India is providing to promote more and more people to set up their own plants. Following is a list of few:
* Relaxation from Excise Duty
* 100% depreciation
* Exemption in sales tax (in some states)
* Exemption in income tax for the first five years
* Sales tax relaxation in backward areas particularly
* Low rates of interest in case anyone wants to apply for loan from govt. financial institutes
* Subsidiaries from state and central govt.
It can be used in several forms having their different advantages and applications. Biomass briquette is made from coal and charcoal that are in high demand. Except this paper briquettes and wood briquettes are equally used. When comparing the fuel obtained by briquetting machines with other fuels available it contains less moisture and high density. So, it is said to be very economical.
