Bulk packaging solution for biochar
When biomass is pyrolyzed, the resulting biochar becomes highly absorbent and can pose self-heating and fire risks if not properly stored. Effective bulk packaging is essential to mitigate these risks.
Prevents oxidation and reduces fire risk
The Torresak by ETIA is a specialized bulk bag designed specifically for storing biochar. It employs Modified Atmosphere Packaging to reduce fire risks during storage and transport. Made from food-grade, anti-static materials, the bag uses vacuum sealing and nitrogen flush to maintain low oxygen levels inside the bag, preventing rapid oxidation. Additionally, it features a hermetic liner that blocks the transfer of gas, moisture, or oils. The vacuum-sealed negative pressure maintains the cubic shape of the bag, ensuring easy stacking and logistics efficiency. The Torresak also has a vibratory compaction system to immobilize char particles, minimizing agitation and friction during transport. This packaging solution integrates fire risk mitigation, product preservation, and optimization in logistics.
