More and more customers are now investing in BBQ charcoal making machine as a profitable venture. This is driven by the rising demand for barbecue charcoal in outdoor grilling and cooking. To meet this growing industry need, Beston Group offers advanced and efficient BBQ charcoal machines. These machines use pyrolysis to convert biomass into high-quality BBQ charcoal. For more details, please read on.
Popular BBQ Charcoal and Rising Market Demand
Rising Demand for BBQ Charcoal
The BBQ charcoal market value has surpassed US$ 3.2 billion in 2023. It is forecasted to drive a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% from 2023 to 2033. This growth trajectory could push the market value beyond USD 5.2 billion by 2033.
More and more popular outdoor cooking activities (barbecues, picnics, camping, etc) are driving this growth. Home cooking preferences for BBQ charcoal is another driver. Consequently, investors in this sector are likely to get good economic benefits.
Popular BBQ Charcoal Briquettes
This combination of benefits makes BBQ charcoal briquettes a popular choice for home cooks and grilling enthusiasts, fueling market growth worldwide.
- Flavor Infusion: The smoky flavor from BBQ charcoal adds depth to the taste of the food.
- Convenient to Use: BBQ charcoal is lightweight, portable, and readily available in various forms.
- Longer Cook Times: The high density of briquettes ensures extended cooking durations, perfect for longer gatherings without interruptions.
What Kind of BBQ Charcoal Machine to Invest?
A complete BBQ charcoal making machine typically comprises two essential parts:
Carbonization Machine – Convert Biomass into Charcoal Powder
This component is the heart of the machine.
- Pyrolysis Technology Principle: Biomass waste is placed in an oxygen-free, high-temperature reactor. Here, it undergoes dehydration, cellulose/hemicellulose/lignin decomposition, and removal of volatile components, ultimately forming high-calorific value charcoal.
- Raw Materials: Waste biomass (5-20mm size, moisture content below 15%)
- Finished Products: Loose charcoal powder

Charcoal Briquette Machine – Shape Charcoal Powder into Briquettes
This part is essential for creating BBQ charcoal with specific sizes and shapes for optimal calorific value, transport, and storage performance.
- Function: Mix charcoal powder from the above carbonization stage with water, and binder uniformly. Then the charcoal briquette machine applies pressure to form briquettes with specific shapes and sizes.
- Raw Materials: Charcoal powder, water, and binder
- Finished Products: Compact, sturdy BBQ charcoal briquettes

Explore Various Shapes of Barbecue Charcoal Briquettes to Get
With the help of the barbecue charcoal production line, investors can obtain massive high-quality barbecue charcoal with specific sizes and specifications. For example, spherical barbecue charcoal, pillow-shaped BBQ briquettes, and oval barbecue charcoal.
Application Fields of Barbecue Charcoal
Family Barbecue
As an ideal barbecue fuel, this charcoal can provide continuous high temperature and long-term heat. Therefore, barbecue and grilled food can be heated evenly. Moreover, a delicious grilled taste and unique flavor can be obtained.
Catering Industry
BBQ charcoal is also widely used in the catering industry, such as barbecue restaurants, hot pot restaurants, etc. Using such a kind of charcoal can improve the efficiency and quality of barbecue dishes.
Other Application of BBQ Charcoal
- Charcoal for barbecue can be used as fuel in industrial production, such as metallurgy, the chemical industry, and other fields.
- Since barbecue charcoal is derived from biomass, it can also function as biochar, offering benefits in soil remediation, carbon sequestration, animal feed additives, metal reductants, etc.
- For construction materials, BBQ charcoal can be used to make carbon bricks.
What Material to Choose to Make Charcoal?
Considering the cooking uses of barbecue charcoal, various types of biomass are excellent choices for making BBQ charcoal. They are from natural materials, cost-effective, and readily available. Charcoal made from these biomasses can impart a subtle, delightful flavor to food, a desirable trait for BBQ enthusiasts. Specific raw materials like:
- Wood: including logs, branches, leaves, sawdust, etc.;
- Straw: including wheat straw, rice straw, corn straw, and other crop straw;
- Nutshells: including peanut shells, coconut shells, palm shells, cocoa shells, etc.;
- Food processing waste: including grape pomace, grape vines, distillers grains, etc.
