White coal, or biocoal, is a cleaner and more environmentally friendly alternative to regular coal. It is made from plant materials such as almond shells and produces no toxic residues. It is easily renewable and produces more energy with lower humidity. Bio-coal requires no additional substances and has a low ash content. It is capable of producing more energy than regular coal and is ideal for applications where heat needs to cover a large area.
Coal is commonly thought of as the dark black rock-like substance that fills the sky with smoke when burned. White coal, also called biocoal, is completely different; for starters, it’s better for the environment because no toxic residues come from creating or using white charcoal. White charcoal is made by taking trees, plants, and agricultural wastes such as almond shells and drying the plant material. It is used in many applications by many industries and is easily renewable. In addition to being cleaner than regular coal, bio-coal also produces more energy and has lower humidity.
To create white charcoal, all you need is plant material and a fire on which to dry the material. The most common materials used to make biochar are leaves, trees, almond and peanut shells, and cotton stalks. Industries normally do this in large drying mechanisms that produce a large amount of biochar. Unlike regular coal, which requires binders and other substances to make the coal usable as an energy source, bio-coal requires no additional substances.
After being dried, the material used to create biochar is formed into a cylindrical shape, the standard for manufacturing biochar. The training is not assisted by any chemicals. It is made using powerful mechanical presses.
The uses of white coal are as varied as the uses of black coal. It is used in homes for heating and cooking and by many industries that need or produce energy. Wherever coal is used, biocarbon can be replaced. White carbon comes from waste and plant materials, which means it is a renewable resource.
Sulfur content is a big problem with regular charcoal. Organic charcoal produces no sulfur and, therefore, no pollution when used. Sulfur can also make black coal difficult to store or be around, but white coal doesn’t have that problem.
Another consideration from an air pollution perspective is the ash created when a substance is burned. The ash level in biochar is usually between 2% and 10%. This percentage is very low, especially when compared to traditional coal’s range of 20% to 40% ash content when burned.
The energy produced by any substance is measured in kilocalories (kcal). Biochar is capable of producing 3,800 kcal to 4,500 kcal when used. Black coal typically produces 3,000 kcal to 3,500 kcal. Burning is also more uniform in biochar than in regular charcoal, making it ideal for applications where the heat needs to cover a large area.
