Improvement of the design of

sawdust briquetting machine.

Introduction:

• What is a sawdust?
• Sawdust, the by-product of most wood working processes, leaves
manufacturers and facilities with fine particles of wood everywhere.
The sawdust is very flammable and can pose serious health threats
when it is inhaled. Add to that the problem of where to store this
waste in a manufacturing facility before it is disposed of, and you have
a multistep process that can take more time, effort and resources
than most manufacturers can invest.
• What is a briquette?
• Briquettes is a compressed block of wood dust, early briquettes were
large and brick-shaped. With the used of sawdust compactor, it can
lessen the waste of furniture manufacturer by using their waste wood
dust to the sawdust compactor and also with the creation of sawdust
briquettes.

General Objective:

• This study aims to improve the design,fabrication of a sawdust

briquetting machine and evaluate it in brgy aglipay, batac ilocos norte.
Specific Objective
• To improve the design of a sawdust briquetting machine
• To fabricate the design of a sawdust briquetting machine
• To evaluate the productivity of a sawdust briquetting machine
• To evaluate the sawdust briquette
Significance of the Study
• This study is significant for furniture shop able to dispose their wood
waste and to make a alternative fuel. Compacted sawdust will be an
alternative solid biomass fuel for (pottery and boilers). Using sawdust
low cost fuel rather than using a expensive fuel.
Scope And Limitation
• This study focuses on the improvement of the design,fabrication and
establishment of a convenient and environmental friendly sawdust
briquetting machine in brgy.aglipay batac ilocos norte
