Draw and write out the mechanism of constructing a charcoal pot with local materials

I don't know that this is a huge chemistry question. This site does not support drawings, diagrams, mechanisms.

Did you know?

Did you know that you can make a charcoal pot using local materials? By understanding the mechanism, you can create an efficient and eco-friendly way to produce charcoal. All you need are easily available resources like clay, sawdust, and a small metal sheet. By mixing clay and sawdust together, you can create a mold for the pot. The metal sheet serves as a lid to control the airflow. Once the pot is constructed, it can be filled with wood or other organic material and then placed over a fire. Through the controlled combustion process, the volatile gases are burned off, leaving behind charcoal. This method not only provides an affordable and sustainable way to produce charcoal but also reduces the impact on forests and helps in waste management.
