The Bio-Briquette Making Machine works by compacting treated waste into high-density brick forms, which can be used as fuel that burns cleaner, longer, and more efficiently than firewood or charcoal. Electricity is used to drive a motor, which in turn drives a screw power transmission system that uses mechanical force to compact waste material into high-density briquettes; which when dried, provides a much better alternative to conventional firewood.
