Design a Machine for Olive-Wood Residual Comprising for Heat Purposes

Abstract

In order to reduce the dependency on traditional heating methods having electricity or diesel power as primary source, the idea of building a project based on the reprocessing of olive and wood waste in the production of the thermal energy that will be used in home heating and water heating has emerged. This project aims to design a firewood machine to produce firewood As a source of thermal energy from the olive peat (Jeft), which available and costless in Palestine. In addition, sawdust and peat will be used in specific proportions to speed up the ignition process, and reduce the amount of fumes generated at the beginning of the combustion process. . The proposed design consists of mechanical, electrical system, and HMI control. Furthermore, it can be scaled up for large production purposes.
