Poha, a popular flattened rice dish, is a staple in many households, especially in India. Bihar, Chhattisgarh, and Ujjain are among the largest producers, churning out more than 100 tonnes daily. However, these factories predominantly rely on fossil fuels, leading to significant pollution and contamination issues due to inefficient combustion. Recognizing these challenges, Steamax introduced Renewable Energy Combustors (REC) designed specifically for poha industry, offering a solution that addresses pollution without escalating costs.

Pollution Risks in the Poha Industry

The poha roasting industry faces several environmental challenges, the most significant of which is the emission of fly ash. This delicate particulate matter can exacerbate respiratory conditions like asthma and inflammation, weaken immunity, and contribute to severe health issues such as heart disease, cancer, and stroke. Additionally, small-scale and household industries often rely on inefficient diesel, and furnaces could be more efficient in excessive pollution due to incomplete fuel combustion.

Advantages of Installing REC in the Poha Industry

Switching to Renewable Energy Combustors (REC) offers numerous benefits for the poha roasting industry:

• Cost Reduction: REC reduces fuel costs by at least 30% and offers the flexibility to use local biomass, such as sawdust and husk.
• Durability: The interior of REC is lined with specialized fire bricks, capable of withstanding high temperatures for extended periods, ensuring long-lasting performance.
• Precise Control: Unlike traditional fossil fuel furnaces, REC features a digital control system, allowing users to manage combustion at specific temperatures.

How the REC System Works

The REC system is design to seamlessly integrate into existing poha roasters without requiring significant modifications. Here’s how it works:

1. Integration with Existing Furnaces: The traditional furnace under the roaster isn’t entirely remove. Instead, the REC system is installed within the existing furnace, transforming it into a multi-fuel system.
2. Controlled Combustion: Controlled fuel burning is crucial for reducing pollution and improving efficiency. The REC system allows you to burn various fuels without increasing production costs or compromising health.
3. Automatic Fuel Feeding: REC has an Automatic Fuel Feeding mechanism, reducing the workforce requirement and ensuring a consistent fuel supply to the roaster.
4. Efficient Fuel Usage: Unlike pellet burners, REC burns fuel directly beneath the roaster, resulting in greater efficiency and reduced fuel consumption.
5. Dual-Chamber Heating: The REC system features a primary chamber where initial combustion occurs and a secondary chamber that ensures uniform heat distribution around the roaster.
6. Digital Temperature Control: The system includes a digital control interface, enabling precise temperature management during roasting.

By adopting Renewable Energy Combustion (REC), the poha industry can become both environmentally friendly and economically competitive. Join the green revolution today and enjoy reduced costs and pollution. Contact us at +91-9315124803  to learn how REC can transform your business.
