A biomass fuel processing enterprise in Burkina Faso recently acquired a Shuliy biomass briquette extruder machine to compress sawdust into high-density fuel briquettes. Prior to installing this equipment, the client relied on low-end machinery that suffered from low output and inconsistent product quality. The installation of our briquette machine directly resolved these issues.

Client background and challenges
- Region: Burkina Faso
- Industry: Biomass fuel production
- Issues with existing equipment:
- Hourly output is merely around 100 kg, insufficient to meet order demands.
- The finished fuel rods exhibit numerous cracks, low density, and uneven combustion.
- Manual operations are cumbersome, and maintenance costs are high.
The client seeks to achieve a simultaneous improvement in both output and product quality by introducing a high-capacity, automated biomass briquette extruder machine.
Equipment introduction
Based on the client’s requirements, we recommended our SL-50 biomass briquette extruder machine. The detailed specifications for this equipment are as follows:
| Parameter | SL-50 Specification |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 250-350 kg/h |
| Power | 18.5 kW |
| Heating temperature | 260-380℃ |
| Raw material size | 3-5 mm |
| Raw material moisture | ≤12% |
| Finished product diameter | 46-50 mm |
| Finished product inner diameter | 10-20 mm |


Production results and client feedback
After implementing the SL-50 sawdust briquetting machine, the client observed the following results:
- Production output: Hourly output increased to approximately 300 kg, significantly enhancing order fulfillment capabilities.
- Product quality: The cracking rate dropped below 2%, while burn duration was extended and flame stability improved.
- Raw material utilization: Waste generated during the briquetting process was reduced, resulting in raw material cost savings of approximately 15%.
- Equipment stability: The biomass briquette making machine operated continuously for 8 hours without malfunction; maintenance intervals were extended, and labor requirements were reduced.
Client Testimonial:
“The SL-50 sawdust briquette machine has enabled us to achieve stable and highly efficient production. The quality of our fuel briquettes has improved significantly, and our market competitiveness has risen accordingly.”
