介紹: The Rising Demand for Biomass Charcoal in Uganda
Uganda, 像許多非洲國家一樣, 面臨能源挑戰, 結束 90% 依靠柴火或木炭做飯的農村家庭. This has led to deforestation and environmental degradation. Charcoal making machines, particularly sawdust extruder machines, offer a sustainable alternative by converting agricultural waste into eco-friendly briquettes.
At WEIWA機械, we recently conducted a field test of our sawdust extruder machine in Uganda, demonstrating its efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
Why Sawdust Extruder Machines Are Ideal for Uganda
1. Abundant Raw Materials
Uganda has vast agricultural waste, including sawdust, 稻殼, and coffee husks—perfect feedstock for sawdust extruder machines. Unlike traditional charcoal production, which destroys forests, this method recycles waste into fuel.
2. Cost-Effective & 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.
- Drying in the sun (or using a solar dryer for faster results).
Trial Results: Efficiency, 輸出 & 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 (餐館, 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. Raw Material Collection
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, 和環境利益, this technology is poised to transform the charcoal industry.
