Biomass pellet making machine is a kind of biomass to energy recycling equipment, which is used to process a variety of biomass raw materials into high-intensity pellet fuel. The biomass pelletizer machine has received worldwide attention from majority of users on account of its low investment, fast return and low risk.
Where do Biomass Pellets Come From?
Biomass pellets are made from various raw materials such as wood, sawdust, rice straw, rice husk, grass, peanut shells, corn stalks, wheat stalks, cotton stalks, corn cobs, tree branches, bagasse, bark, furfural residue, edible fungus residue, Chinese medicine residue and other kinds of biomass solid waste.
Different raw materials are used to make different pellets. Please pay attention to the following factors when you choose the raw materials:
SIZE OF RAW MATERIALS
Exclude sawdust, most of the biomass raw materials are larger than 2cm, so the materials need to be crushed before pelletizing. For example, the crusher or hammer mill can make the long and large wood chips into 3-5mm wood powder, which is the best size for biomass pellet making.
MOISTURE CONTENT
Moisture content of the raw materials is an important factor to influence the quality of biomass pellets. The most suitable moisture content is 12%-18% for biomass pelletizing. If the moisture content of the raw materials is higher than 15%, a dryer is needed.
PURITY
Some raw materials are pure, but others may contain metal scraps or stones, such as sawdust. If such impurities enter the biomass pellet mill, there is no doubt that it will cause damage to pellet mill roller and die. So the biomass with impurities should be sieved before pelletizing.
What are Biomass Pellets Used For?
Features of Biomass Pellets
- Biomass pellet is a new type of biomass renewable energy. It is small in size, high in specificity, resistant in combustion, easy in storage and transportation.
- Its volume is only 1/10 of the same weight of straw, and its density is 0.9-1.4g/cm3. The calorific value of the biomass pellet can reach between 3500-5500kcal, which is a solid fuel with high volatile content.
- Eco-friendly and renewable.
Applications of Biomass Pellet
- Used as fuel: it can replace firewood, raw coal, liquefied gas, etc.to be widely used for burning in domestic stoves, heating stoves, hot water boilers, industrial boilers, and biomass power plants.
- Used as animal feed: the grain crops (corn stalks, corn kernels, mixed food crop feed, etc.) can be used as feed after pelleting, and can be used for breeding rabbits, fish, ducks, chickens, shrimp, pigs, horses, cattle, and sheep.
How do You Make Biomass Pellets?
- Crushing: make sure that the diameter of the required material should be smaller than 2cm. If not, put the raw materials into drum chipper to make them smaller.
- Transportation: transport the raw materials into dryer by belt conveyor.
- Material drying: dry the raw materials to make the moisture content less than 15%.
- Pelletizing: the raw materials are allocated to different machines under the action of gravity and then pelletized.
- Cooling and packaging: the biomass pellets come from the pelletizer machine and then enter the cooling machine, or are cooled naturally. Then package the pellets.
