Continuous pyrolysis of farm residues into green charperforms like charcoal from wood, at half the cost.
Machinery is modest, requires minimal energy(8kw electric), with no toxic emissions.
Run by two persons, produces 4 tons a day.

2 Chamber Conversion ReactorMSW is fed by “charging unit” into upper chamber where it is gasified. Gases leave reactor through outlet and combusted in burn chamber.MSW falls into lower chamber where it forms char & combustible gas.
Gas is burned with air entering through slits.Charcoal is discharged at the bottom.
