How hookah charcoal dryer work?
After shaping, shisha charcoal or barbecue charcoal contains a high moisture content (approximately 40%) and requires drying to set its shape.
The box-type drying room features a fully enclosed structure and utilizes a hot air circulation system to evenly distribute heat throughout the chamber, thereby reducing drying time and ensuring consistent drying results. Under normal conditions, the moisture content of the material can be reduced from 40% to approximately 8% within 7–8 hours.
The operation process is simple:
- Place the charcoal blocks to be dried on the cart rack.
- Push the cart into the drying chamber.
- Set the drying time and temperature, then start the equipment.
- Once the set time is reached, the equipment automatically stops, and the dried and shaped charcoal blocks can be removed.
