Making high quality charcoal with no smoke.

[@jameskniskern2261]

I live in a place where charcoal is not needed for cooking. But on our farm we use large kilns to make charcoal for biochar. We add our crushed charcoal to the compost, and then to our gardens to increase the fertility of the soil. We use pruingings and "waste" wood that would otherwise become a fire hazard to improve our soils. Your two barrel system is simple, and will make large amounts of charcoal, both for cooking and for soil improvement. Thank you for sharing your idea.

We want to have less smoke if we start the fire from the top smoke will be burnt more and when we start the fire from the top it create sucking system better.When the air flow strong the temperature will be high too so the charcoal will good quality.

[@petee716]

Fire started at the bottom will burn everything to ash. When lit from the top air is being drawn in from the bottom. As the flame moves down the barrel it consumes all of the oxygen and deprives the partially burnt wood above it of oxygen and prevents it from burning . The heat cooks it (pyrolizes it) in the absence of oxygen. The flames at the top of the barrel is from woodgas being driven out of the pyrolizing wood. The space between the barrels provides oxygen for this "afterburner". The process continues until the fire column reaches the bottom. It must be sealed off right away or the fire will burn back upward and burn the charcoal to ash.

How many kg can I make a day with this system ? Thank u

[@JonJandaiLifeisEasy]

You can do it 4 times a day each time you can get 1-2 feed bags. I haven't weight it so far but it will be enough for cooking at least 2 weeks .
