Brief description of technological process carrying out in wood waste recycling equipment FORTAN and FORTAN-M
Wood waste is loaded into a retort (a container of heat-resistant metal). The retort is located in the pyrolysis module. The pyrolysis module is lined with high-temperature thermal insulation on the basis of ceramic fiber and refractory concrete, so during operation the temperature of the outer wall of the module is safe for service personnel.
Raw materials are not exposed to direct fire; heat transfer is carried out through the walls of the retort. The maximum operating temperatures are 450-520 °C. The retort cover is manufactured with a special design closure, which ensures complete sealing of the space within the retort and eliminates the possibility of smoke. The steam-gas mixture comes out from the retort through a pipeline, and then it is cooled in a condenser-fridge. The vapor condenses and the resulting liquid separates from non-condensable gases.
The liquid accumulates in the liquid product collector. The gas is used to maintain the pyrolysis process - it is sent to the burner and then it burned in the furnace. FORTAN and FORTAN-M plants are designed for flexible use: they have standard dimensions for transportation by any means of transport, flanged connections throughout the structure (due to it the installation-dismantling process takes a minimum amount of time) and a stand for transportation.
The results of wood waste recycling plant FORTAN
Result 1: wood waste recycling business
The problem of rational and full use of wood waste of sawmilling and woodworking as a secondary technological raw material acquires the most important national economic importance. In this regard, we recommend you to start your own business for wood waste recycling. It is worth pondering over this, because hectares of trees are cut down every week, and no one has the opportunity and the strength to revive such an array of trees. However, you can start with a small thing and begin to rework and reuse wood waste. It is you who can offer re-use of already recycled wood waste. In addition, you can recycle your own household waste. Contact our specialists for more information on starting your own business!
Result 2: obtaining commercial products
The table shows examples of additional products that you can get after the finishing of wood waste recycling process.
| Black carbon – 40% |
It can be used as solid fuel, sorbent in disposal facilities, in manufacture of tires, hoses and cables. |
| Liquid heating oil – 35-45% |
It can be used as boiler fuel. Then it is recycled in refinery for obtaining oil fractions, such as petrol, diesel fractions and fuel oil. |
| Gas – 10-12% |
It is used to maintain the pyrolysis process inside the furnace and for space heating. |
| Metal cord – 8-10% |
It can be melted down. |
| Heat |
Thermal energy is accumulated in exhaust-heat boilers for water heating and central heating. |
Result 3: gratitude from nature
Plants developed by our company are environmentally friendly. After the creation of the product or the construction of the house, a lot of wood waste remains. Most throw it away, forgetting about recycling or reusing. Because of the excess of wood waste, plots of forests, fields and even lakes and rivers become clogged. We offer a solution of this problem with the help of universal plants FORTAN and FORTAN-M. Join us!
Advantages of FORTAN and FORTAN-M plants
You can recycle various types of waste with the help of FORTAN and FORTAN-M plants, for instance: waste of rubber products and plastics, woodworking and wood chemistry waste, oil chips and scale of metallurgical plants, oil sludge, medical waste, etc. The complete list of waste includes more than 900 items.
FORTAN and FORTAN-M plants are designed for companies wishing to organize a waste recycling business and for enterprises that need to independently recycle industrial waste. Furthermore they can obtain commercial products and alternative sources of energy for space heating.
Our wood waste recycling equipment complies with environmental standards and has the necessary certificates and permits.

What do you need to start your own wood waste recycling business?
- First of all you need to get a license to handle waste.
At the moment, the license is issued indefinitely and allows collecting, transporting, recycling, utilizing and disposing of the waste that will be specified during licensing.
- Secondly, you should equip the site of plant location.
Wood waste recycling FORTAN and FORTAN-M plants are mobile. They can work on the street, plants do not require the construction of special premises and do not tie the business to a specific location.
