Introduction: The Rising Demand for Biomass Charcoal in Uganda
Uganda, Comme de nombreuses nations africaines, fait face à des défis énergétiques, avec plus 90% des ménages ruraux s'appuyant sur du bois de chauffage ou du charbon de bois pour cuisiner. Cela a conduit à la déforestation et à la dégradation de l'environnement. Charcoal making machines, particularly sawdust extruder machines, Offrez une alternative durable en convertissant les déchets agricoles en briquettes écologiques.
At Machinerie Weiwa, we recently conducted a field test of our sawdust extruder machine in Uganda, démontrant son efficacité et sa rentabilité.
Why Sawdust Extruder Machines Are Ideal for Uganda
1. Abundant Raw Materials
Uganda has vast agricultural waste, y compris la sciure, coccarbures de riz, and coffee husks—perfect feedstock for sawdust extruder machines. Contrairement à la production traditionnelle de charbon de bois, qui détruit les forêts, Cette méthode recycle les déchets en carburant.
2. Rentable & Profitable
The sawdust extruder price in Uganda is competitive, and the return on investment (ROI) is high. Our trial showed that a small-scale unit can produce 300 kg of biomass briquettes per hour, selling at USh 2,000-3,000 per kg (approx. 0.80).
3. Environmentally Friendly
Unlike traditional charcoal, which emits harmful smoke, biomass briquettes burn cleaner, reducing respiratory diseases and deforestation.
Weiwa’s Sawdust Extruder Machine: Key Features & Trial Setup
Machine Specifications
Our sawdust extruder machine for sale includes:
- High-pressure screw extrusion for dense briquettes.
- Diesel/petrol engine options (no electricity needed).
- Adjustable output size (5-10mm diameter).
Trial Location & Process
We set up the machine in Mukono District, Uganda, partnering with a local farmer. The trial involved:
- Feeding sawdust into the machine.
- Extruding briquettes under high pressure.
- Séchage in the sun (or using a solar dryer for faster results).
Trial Results: Efficiency, Sortir & Local Feedback
1. Production Capacity
The machine produced 300 kg of biomass briquettes/hour with minimal downtime. Local workers were trained within 2 days, proving ease of use.
2. Fuel Efficiency
The diesel engine consumed 2.5 liters/hour, making operational costs low.
3. Market Response
Local buyers (restaurants, households) were impressed by:
- Higher burn time (vs. traditional charcoal).
- Lower smoke emissions.
- Affordable pricing (USh 2,500/kg vs. USh 3,500/kg for wood charcoal).
Sawdust Extruder Price in Uganda: Is It Worth the Investment?
Cost Breakdown
- Machine price: 12,000 (depending on capacity).
- Raw material cost: ~$30/day (sawdust is cheap/free locally).
- Labor & maintenance: Minimal ($50/month).
ROI Calculation
With $1,000/day revenue potential, the machine pays for itself in 6-8 months.
Challenges & Solutions for Ugandan Entrepreneurs
1. Collection de matières premières
Solution: Partner with sawmills/rice mills for free sawdust.
2. Drying Process
Solution: Use solar dryers (cheaper than fuel-based drying).
3. Market Competition
Solution: Sell directly to hotels/schools (bulk buyers).
Conclusion: Why Weiwa’s Sawdust Extruder is a Game-Changer in Uganda
Our field test proved that sawdust extruder machines are viable for Uganda’s energy needs. With low investment, high returns, and environmental benefits, this technology is poised to transform the charcoal industry.
