Biochar Pyrolysis Equipment & Biomass Carbonization Systems | Turnkey Solutions by PyroGreen

Biomass pyrolysis equipment to produce biochar
Biochar Production Systems

Biochar pyrolysis equipment (also called biochar production systems or biomass carbonization equipment) converts biomass feedstockssuch as agricultural residues, forestry waste, and livestock manureinto high-quality biochar and syngas under oxygen-limited or anaerobic conditions. These systems ensure efficient biomass conversion, enabling renewable energy recovery and the generation of carbon credits through biochar production. What is Biomass Pyrolysis? Biochar Production & Carbon Sequestration Explained

A complete biochar production system comprises four core modules:

 

Feedstock Pretreatment Uni Pyrolysis Reactor Product Separation & Collection System Emission Control System

Components of biomass pyrolysis equipment

Biomass Pretreatment System

Function: Prepares raw biomass through crushing, drying, and homogenization to ensure consistent pyrolysis efficiency.

 

Crusher: Reduces bulk biomass (branches, straw, etc.) to 530mm particles
Dryer: Maintains moisture content 15% to minimize energy consumption
Conveyor: Screw/pneumatic systems for continuous reactor feeding


Pyrolysis Reactor

Core Process: Pyrolysis occurs at 300800°C in oxygen-deprived environments, decomposing biomass into: Solid (biochar) , Liquid (bio-oil) , Gas (syngas) .

Critical Parameters:

  • Temperature: Determines biochar porosity & carbon stability
  • Heating Rate: Slow pyrolysis (biochar-focused) vs. fast pyrolysis (bio-oil-focused)
  • Residence Time: Ensures complete decomposition
