LOW CAPACITY BRICK KILN

This improved brick kiln technology has been jointly developed by TIDE and Gramavidya, Bangalore. This low-capacity brick kiln is designed for a batch size of about 12000 bricks as against a batch size of about 40,000 to 50,000 in conventional clamps.  The specific fuel consumption is 0.27 kg of firewood per brick which is lower than the specific fuel consumption in clamps (around 0.35 kg fuel per brick. Energy efficiency is difficult to achieve when working at low batch sizes. The lo capacity brick kiln is a fixed kiln unlike the clamps where brick making can be carried out in the vicinity of tank beds. 

Features

  • Compact with low space requirement (Therefore, suitable even in small places)
  • Capacity 12,000 bricks / batch
  • Rejects less than 5%
  • Fuel type - firewood, coal, rice husk
  • Batch time 5-7 days
  • Good quality of bricks, can fetch a higher price
  • Potential to conserve 15%-20% of fuel compared to conventional clamps
