As a reliable equipment manufacturer and recycling solution provider, Beston Group has always been the first choice for many jute stick recyclers.
Understand Jute Stick
Main Components of Jute
For jute cultivation, the stems are the most valuable part. The structure of the jute stem consists of bast (jute fibre) and core (jute stick):
- Jute Fibre: It is the most economically important segment in the processing of jute products. Thanks to its strong fibre structure, jute fibre is often used in textile production.
- Jute Stick: It is the main supporting part of the stem and contains more lignin. The harder texture and shorter fiber length make it less valuable for processing. Therefore, it is a waste product from the processing of jute products.
Data for Jute Stick
In the past ten years, the average annual global jute production has been approximately 3.5 million tons. According to statistics, jute sticks account for about 75% of jute cultivation. Therefore, approximately 2.6 million tons of jute sticks are produced globally every year. Asia is the main concentration area of global jute production. Among them, jute cultivation in India and Bangladesh accounts for 95% of global production. Therefore, these two countries are also the main sources of jute sticks.
| Top5 Countries of Global Jute Production | |
|---|---|
| Country | Production per Year |
| India | 1804.6Kt |
| Bangladesh | 1509.9Kt |
| Cambodia | 8.4Kt |
| China | 2.7Kt |
| Uzbekistan | 1.9Kt |
Jute Sticks Recycling Difficulties
Lack of Technical Innovation
The fiber of jute sticks is tightly integrated with the woody parts. This makes the process of extracting fiber relatively complex. Therefore, traditional processing of fiber products is not suitable for jute sticks. Efficient technology to achieve large-scale recycling of jute sticks is a problem.
Low Market Demand
The resource value of jute stick is relatively low compared to jute fiber which is mainly used in textile manufacturing. Directly reusing jute sticks as fuel, fertilizer, and feed produces poor results. Therefore, the economic value of jute stick recycling is low. This results in a lack of sufficient economic incentives for the recycling and reuse of jute sticks.
Sustainable Jute Stick Recycling Solution: Jute Stick Charcoal Machine
For the issue of recycling jute sticks, a jute stick charcoal making machine has become the optimal solution. Through pyrolysis technology, this machine converts jute sticks into charcoal, which is widely used in many industries. Therefore, it has considerable development prospects. In general, the jute stick to charcoal solution plays a vital role in waste management for the jute industry.
Resource Utilization of Jute Stick
The conversion of jute sticks into charcoal products fully exploits the potential value of the resource. In addition, jute stick charcoal is used in various fields such as agriculture, animal husbandry, industry, and manufacturing. Thus, this achieves diversified utilization of waste resources.
Sustainable Development of Jute Industry
Through the self-supply of waste recycling, the jute stick charcoal machine realizes a closed loop of internal resource circulation in the jute industry. In addition, the commercial value of jute stick charcoal adds a new sustainable profit model to the jute industry chain. Thus, the jute stick to charcoal solution pushes the jute industry in a more sustainable direction.
Working Process of Jute Stick Charcoal
01Jute Stick Pretreatment
For a jute stick charcoal machine, the feed size should be less than 20 mm. The optimal feed size is 5-8 mm. Furthermore, the moisture content of jute sticks should be less than 15%. We provide dryers and crushers to bring jute sticks up to feeding standards.
02Pyrolysis of Jute Stick
After the jute sticks enter the main furnace, start the burner to heat the main furnace for 60-90 minutes. The reaction begins after preheating is completed. The biomass pyrolysis process takes place in a microaerobic environment. The reaction temperature is 380°C to 450°C. During this process, internal moisture, mixed biogas, and volatile matter are continuously released. The final solid residue forms jute stick charcoal.
03Combustible Gas Recycling
The mixed biogas formed in the main reaction furnace undergoes dust removal and purification to form combustible gas. The combustible gas re-enters the combustion system through the pipeline to provide a heat source supply for the reaction. Additionally, you can collect combustible gases separately.
04Charcoal Discharging
After the reaction, the jute stick charcoal staying in the main furnace has a higher temperature. The water-cooled screw extractor lowers the temperature of the charcoal and discharges it.
05Exhaust Gas Treatment
The high-temperature exhaust gas first passes through the flue condenser and cyclone dust collector. This is for dust removal and cooling. Subsequently, the waste gas enters the spray tower and condensation tower for further purification. Finally, the exhaust gas is discharged from the chimney. We provide high-end exhaust gas treatment systems. The flue gas treated by this system can eventually meet EU emission standards.

Jute stick charcoal treated with biochar equipment is also biochar. It makes outstanding contributions to reducing carbon footprint:
- Improves the soil’s carbon storage capacity by increasing organic carbon content;
- Reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the soil by reducing oxidation processes in the soil;
- Get carbon offset units/carbon credits by reducing carbon emissions;
- Earn revenue by trading carbon offset units/carbon credits on the carbon trading market.
Jute stick charcoal can be used as raw material to produce building materials such as cement additives, insulation boards, eco-friendly bricks, etc. These building materials have good properties:
- Insulation reduces energy consumption;
