Thank you very much!

I've made one similar to this using a scrap piece of square rainwater down pipe. I drilled holes, cut it in two and used three off cuts to lock it together. Works fine but I never thought of putting holes in the briquettes. That's very clever. Well done! I'll try adding a couple of spokes on my piston to see if it makes any difference. Well done again for your very scientific approach.

Thanks for watching. This design is very simple. You can make this using scrap 2x2. The tools needed for making the press are just hand saw for wood, hacksaw for metal for the pivot, electric drill to make a hole for the pivot, screws and screwdriver. For the mould just use a scrap pvc pipe 3 or 4 inches, hacksaw to cut the pvc pipe lengthwise, electric drill to make small holes and 3 or 4 inch hose clip.

Very cool idea!

Yep. This is just for demo. To show the simplest and cheapest way to make briquettes. But it is not ideal if you want to make it as a business. For mass production you'll have to make a machine that can make several briquettes in one press. That's my project in the future.

I saw quite a few videos on paper briquette making. Sounds like an environmentally friendly and economical way to sustainability. I do have a question, though: has it been researched if waste paper with printed material on it is harmful when burned, due to the fact that ink and/or powdered toner (used in laser printing) may produce harmful (or even toxic) airborne substances when burned?

@diyhobbyistcoupleph4985

2 жыл бұрын

That's a very good question. I just avoid using magazine as its paper has a lot of print in it and It has chemicals that makes the ink waterproof. So I'm not sure if that chemical is safe to humans and the environment. That's why I just avoid magazines. I think the ink used in ordinary printers are safer than magazines. I've read an article that the chemicals they use are just as toxic as in dish soap. The amount of chemical you inhale will depend on how many times in a week or a day you use the briquettes. If you're just using it whenever you grill that's just fine. If you're using it an hour a day it's still OK. But if you're grilling the whole day everyday like in the restaurant that the main menu is grilled I think that's already harmful. You should not use paper with prints but substitute it with a cornstarch as a binder to the biomass material(sawdust or charcoal).

In fact, I am considering getting into paper briquette making.

@@tf-kl3kk It's always better to do the grilling outdoors. But if you don't have a lawn/backyard to set up the grill like in an apartment or condominium unit you can use briquettes indoors as long as you have a range hood or exhaust and the chimney is tall enough. About the toxic chemical present in an ink it's just some people exaggerates some small things. To me that pinch of toxic chemical can't reach the ozone. It will just be absorb by the trees. As for our health. I'm a nurse by profession by the way. Before it can enter our lungs it will pass through our nose. It will be filtered by the hair on our nose and stick to the mucus and eventually become a booger. If it happens to get in to our lungs, our lungs have enough mucus to protect us from that little toxic. It will not go directly to our system. It will just stick on the mucus and eventually be coughed or sneezed out.

Just a suggestion..with regards to the the pvc pipe i think you don't need to slice it in half thus removing the clamps everytime....why not remove the bottom cap as you finish pressing the biomass, you turn the pvc pipe upside down then press it downward for the pressed biomass to come out upward from the pvc pipe.

@diyhobbyistcoupleph4985

Жыл бұрын

I tried that one. Because the biomass is compressed tightly it is hard to push it out. After a few briquettes I used a lot of energy pushing it out than compressing it. And it's very time consuming to push out. It is easier and faster this way.

You've been so helpful. Thanks for sharing these two videos about this interesting idea. can you please tell us the difference between the three mixtures at 1:34 ?

@diyhobbyistcoupleph4985

3 жыл бұрын

The difference of the three is the 70% paper 30% sawdust mixture is easier to ignite but it burns faster and produced a lot of ash and less heat. The 30% paper 70% sawdust takes longer to ignite and kind of brittle because the only thing that binds them is the paper and the amount is just few. You could add some other binder like cornstarch but in this video I didn't use any because it is also an experiment if paper alone can bind them. That's why the 50 50 ratio is the best among the three. It is easier to ignite, burns longer and doesn't break easily. But If you won't base it on my experiment the best ratio is pure sawdust. Make a paste using cornstarch and add it to the mixture. But not too much. If you want a longer burn you could add some used cooking oil to the mixture before drying them..
