We supply charcoal briquettes from India. Our briquettes are of metallurgical quality. our briquettes are made from hardwood charcoal with calorific value greater than 7500 KCAL per KG. They are extruded and we can supply both cylindrical and hexagonal solid and hollow briquettes. Our website is www.arstaeco.com or you can reach us at info@arstaeco.com for further information.
Biocarbon is the solid product of thermal degradation of biomass at medium to high temperatures in the absence of oxygen. It represents an important energy vector that has a higher heating value on a mass basis than biomass and a higher energy density when compressed.
Through carbonization and removal of the main part of the volatiles, an upgraded biomass fuel is produced, with favorable combustion properties. Biocarbon has a great potential as solid fuel in small scale boilers and stoves and also industrial co-combustion plants, partially substituting fossil coal. Biocarbon is considered as green coal and are carbon neutral. Biocarbon is also used in the metallurgical industry as a substitute for fossil coal and coke.
Arsta Eco bio carbon is made using agricultural Residue.
We are able to produce high grade biocarbon because of our in-depth knowledge of feedstock and their properties and our state of art production techniques.
The production process involves collection of agricultural Residue from the farm Gate, sorting and preparation of feedstock, Drying and sizing, Carbonisation, sorting and packing.
Our bio carbon comes in three grades and two sizes. We also produce Biocarbon to customers specifications for orders above 200Tons
1: Rhombus Pellets (roll formed)
2: Hexagonal Logs (extruded)

Charcoal is a solid fuel used for heating and cooking that is created through the process of carbonisation, which is a process where complex carbon substances such as wood or other biomass are broken down through a slow heating process into carbon. When Charcoal products are produced from biomass sources such as woody agricultural residue, nut shells, etc. it is sustainable charcoal and carbon neutral. Charcoal is produced by slow heating woody biomass in airtight ovens or retorts, in chambers with various gases, or in kilns supplied with limited and controlled amounts of air.
Traditional methods of charcoal production cause immense damage to the environment can be life threatening to workers and contribute significantly to the deforestation of the Tropical rain forests, the lungs of the Earth
The Agricultural Industry produces much waste which is either left to decompose or in worst case scenarios burnt in the field. We asked ourselves if these natural by products could be better used. We found that many environmentally friendly positives could be found by using these natural resources to produce our Grill Briquettes for you. With the purchase of these otherwise wasted resources we are able to enhance the incomes of poor rural farmers and their families.
Every year upwards of 300,000 tonnes of charcoal are imported into the EU alone. In part this is met through illegal charcoal production in the African Tropical rainforests and almost all are derived from wood products .Our ambition is to change that and offer a quality product without compromising on performance.
WHY PRODUCE GRILL BRIQUETTES FROM COCONUT MATERIAL
Our Briquettes are produced from 100% sustainable resources from the Coconut industry. Whether for professionals or hobby chefs quality, performance and price are the key factors taken into consideration. Now we have made that choice simple
100% Sustainable
ArSta Eco Briquettes are made from waste products of the coconut industry and their use directly reduces harmful greenhouse gas emissions
Long cooking time
3kg of ArSta Eco Briquettes will cook for up to 6hrs, some three times longer than existing products. Our briquettes are Renewable and Reuseable .
High cooking temperatures
The calorific value is high allowing optimal cooking temperatures for BBQ favourites such as Pulled Pork, Ribs and Steaks.
Environmentally friendly
To produce such quality no trees need felling and we support Reforestation projects through the sale of our products.
Odourfree
This natural resource produces no foul or acrid smoke or smells leaving just the natural goodness of the food being prepared.
Minimal Ash content
Very low ash content maintained through the use of high quality products and processes.
At ArSta eco we offer Biochar based soil improvers for all your agriculture and horticulture needs. Our products improve the physical structure of soil increase its water holding capacity, increase nutrient retention and enhances soil fertility.
What is it?
Biochar is a charcoal like substance made from the high temperature treatment of biomass in a low oxygen environment containing at least 60 % carbon â?? this is a conducted via thermal process known as pyrolysis. Pyrolysis process bio char at temperature much higher than ordinary charcoal, giving the biochar special properties that are targeted for making soils healthy
How is it made?
Arsta Biochar is made through a start of the art Biochar reactor to ensure the product is consistent and meets international standard. The feedstock is agricultural residue sourced directly from the farmers and is sustainable and ecologically friendly. The entire process is carbon negative.
How it will help your soil?
Increases inorganic and organic soil carbon
Improves plant growth
Improves soil fertility and soil health reducing fertilizer requirement
Increased water and nutrient holding capacity of the soil
Provides a home for beneficial soil microbes including mycorrhizal fungi
Puts carbon back into the soil â?? locking up atmospheric carbon
Increased soil cation exchange capacity and soil pH
Can be added to soil compost and mulches to stimulate microbial activity
Can be blended with fertilizers to improve availability and reduce loss
Decrease toxicity of aluminum and other metals
How to use ?
Applications can be repeated annually, mixed into the root zone raw or blended with your favorite fertilizer to boost the plant growth. For existing crops, it can also be applied as top dressing. Application shall vary depending on soil types, vegetation and environment.
