Delivery to Surat

Surat is in South Gujarat, so we plan it as scheduled full-truck dispatch from Kadi rather than local drops. Freight is quoted against your address, and steady monthly users get a delivery schedule so the boiler house does not run short.

Why switch from coal to white coal?

Indian coal generally carries 25–45% ash (Ministry of Coal), which means frequent grate cleaning and ash disposal cost. BBI briquettes are specified at ash below 10% and are made from agricultural residue, a renewable feedstock. Higher-grade coal carries more heat per kg, so compare on cost per million Kcal.

Common Questions

White Coal in Surat — FAQ

Who supplies white coal to Surat dyeing and textile units?

Bharat Bio Industries makes white coal at its Kadi plant and supplies Surat units factory-direct, with a batch lab report available on request.

Is white coal suitable for thermic fluid heaters and steam boilers in textile processing?

In most grate-fired steam boilers and thermic fluid heaters, yes. Our briquettes have ash below 10% against roughly 25 to 45% in typical Indian coal. Because feeder and grate design vary, we recommend a 25 MT trial on one boiler and a review of your set-up.

What is the delivered price of white coal in Surat?

Ex-factory prices range from about ₹6 to ₹14 per kg depending on volume and contract length; freight to Surat is added by distance. MOQ is 25 MT. Share your monthly requirement for an exact quote.

Can I get a regular monthly supply for a Surat mill?

Yes. Standard contracts start at 50 MT per month and large-volume contracts at 200+ MT per month, with scheduled deliveries.

What is white coal and how is it different from normal coal in Surat?

White coal is a 90mm compressed biomass briquette made from agricultural residue and sawdust. Typical Indian coal carries 25–45% ash; BBI white coal keeps ash below 10% (typically 2–8%), has sulphur below 0.1%, and is a renewable fuel with no chemical binders.

What is the rate of white coal per ton in Surat?

Ex-factory bulk pricing is roughly ₹6–₹14 per kg (₹6,000–₹14,000 per MT) depending on volume, contract length and feedstock. Freight to your site is added by distance. Send your monthly requirement for an exact quote.

What is the minimum order for white coal in Surat?

The minimum order quantity is 25 MT. Standard contracts start at 50 MT/month and large industrial contracts at 200+ MT/month.

Is white coal good for brick kilns and boilers around Surat?

Yes. The 90mm briquette burns slowly and steadily, which suits brick kilns, grate-fired boilers, thermic fluid heaters and furnaces. We recommend a 25 MT trial to confirm performance on your equipment.

What is the calorific value (GCV) of BBI white coal?

GCV is 3800–4200 Kcal/kg with moisture below 10%. A batch-specific lab report covering GCV, moisture and ash is available on request.

Is white coal cheaper than coal for Surat industries?

Compare on cost per million Kcal, not per kg. Coal can have similar GCV but 25–45% ash, so ash handling, cleaning downtime and emissions compliance add hidden cost. Use our fuel cost calculator for your own numbers.
