Basics

  • A Kiln for making Charcoal
  • If powered by fuel and not electricity, it diverges from Ceramics Kiln / Heat Treatment Oven development in that the Syngas and/or Pyrolysis Oil can be utilized (either as fuel to increase overall efficiency, or as separate products
  • If going for basic charcoal, to an extent the “pit method” / a Kon Tiki system can be more effective
