Financial Benefits – profit from sales or from thermal energy

* The following example illustrates how cost effective the PH Briquette machine is:

Potential annual income from briquette sales:

10kg of briquettes per hour (on average), 8 hours a day = 80kg per day = 400kg per a 5 day week = 40 x 10kg bags per week.

Selling 10kg for £4 gives a weekly revenue of £160 x 46 weeks / year.

Average annual working weeks including annual and Bank Holidays equating to possible annual revenue of £7,360.

Other benefits / savings per annum:

Landfill tax: £40 per ton

Annual production of waste 18.4 tons: saving you £736

Skip hire + manipulation £80 per ton in average: saving you £1,472

	briquette average production quantity and revenue:
time	kilograms	10 kg bags (£4 each)	value (£)
1 hour	10 kg	1 pcs	£4
1 day (8 hours)	80 kg	8 pcs	£32
1 week (5 days)	400 kg	40 pcs	£160
1 year (46 weeks)	18,400 kg	1,840 pcs	£7,360

Additional savings:

cost saving	Skip hire+manipulation	18.4 tonnes (£80 / ton – average)	£1,472
Additional annual savings in total			£2,208

Profit from thermal energy

Aside from sales revenue and saved skip hire and landfill fees, any briquette machine will pay for itself in less than a year based purely on thermal energy produced from its briquettes.

PH briquette machine example:

Average production of 10 kg per hour (1kg of briquettes = 6kW) = 60 kW = £2.83.

This is thermal energy (UK gas units) worth approx. £5,200 per year minus £920 of consumed electricity.

+ possible landfill tax and skip hire savings (i.e. + £736 + £1,472 respectively).
